// To be able to drag selections to other program //

Post by RickTrelles »

Hi! I have used Synchronize it! for a long time very successfully.

I think there is a simple way to update RW DVDs to keep them in sync with the folders to backup.

All we need is, once the comparison folder/DVD is done, *to be able to drag the selection to the window of the
burner program*. It´s incredible how little help there is to do do that simple kind of backup!

Is it too hard to implement just that dragging?

Thank you,

Rick Trelles

In fact you should be able to drag file out with Ctrl+Right mouse button.

Thank you for your response.

But, no, after comparison is made the right-click options are

Select
Reverse
Delete
Do it now! Ctrl+Space
Compare Enter (inactive)
Open
Copy to
Properties

If one used "Copy to" that would copy the actual files to some other directory.

What would be needed is to drag the selection of the comparison to the burner window. If one makes a selection in Windows Explorer one can drag that highlighted selection to another window. Problem is Explorer can't compare two folders and I haven't found any other directory navigator that can make the comparison and keep the directory structure like Compare It! does.

Yes, I understand this. Try keeping CTRL key pressed and drag using right mouse button. Left button is used for selection, so I can not use it as you do in explorer.
