Moving

We have copied and renamed several of our resources. Now it's time to move some resources around. We will move our JanesOtherFolder and its file to be a subfolder of our original folder JanesFolder.

  1. In the Navigator view, select JanesOtherFolder.

  2. From the file's context menu, select Move.

  3. In the Folder Selection dialog choose JanesFolder and click OK.

  4. In the Navigator JanesFolder now contains JanesOtherFolder. Expand JanesOtherFolder and confirm that it contains JanesText.txt.

We have seen how to move files using the move operation. It is also possible to move files by dragging a file from one folder to another folder. You may recall that to copy files from one folder to the other you need to hold down Ctrl while performing the drag and drop operation.
