Modern Library UI group Drag & Drop
I might have been dreaming, but I thought in the modern library UI it was possible to drag and drop items from one group into the other. I can see that icons change when I move an item in a grouped ...
You are not dreaming. Here is what I've noticed...
- In modern libraries with a grouped view I am currently able to drag a file from my desktop and drop it into a group. The file will be automatically tagged with the proper metadata for that group and it will appear in the group to which it was dropped
- Just yesterday I was able to successfully drag single and multiple files from one group into another group and the metadata was updated accordingly.
- However, dragging and dropping between groups seems to only work intermittently
- I did a little research and wasn't able to come up with anything that shows this is in the works
- If anyone has any add'l info please let us know.
Hi Michael, it seems that the first point you have mentioned, dropping file on to the group to apply metadata automatically is not working for me now ( I remember it worked perfectly the other day). Do you know the reason and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks in advance!
It doesn't work for me now either. Here is what I suspect...and this is merely my opinion
- MS was working on that feature at some point and soft released it to Targeted release users without mentioning it at all
- The eventually rolled this update back for some reason...I have no idea why
- So the only people who probably ever noticed this would have been the targeted release folks.
I wish I had more...good luck!
