MRT: Rename and Move at Once

Post by *albatinti »

Hello,

I have to collect several thousands of files from different folders, then rename and move them into a single directory. I have to do this several times.

After selecting and renaming, it seems that TCM does not give the option to move the files right away. I have to reset, search for the new named files again, and only then I can move them to the new folder.

Is there away to avoid this additional step and move the files right after renaming them?

Thank you,
Albe

You can move them by adding a folder to the name:

Code: Select all

NewFolder\[N]
The new folder is relative to the original position. So the trick would be to go up a couple of levels to reach the drive root:

Code: Select all

..\..\..\..\..\NewFolder\[N]
This should put them in c:\NewFolder.
It depends on where your destination folder is located.

I would like to be able to rename and move as well, see my suggestion here for a target panel shortcut in MRT http://www.ghisler.ch/board/viewtopic.php?t=37663
