Hi there,
I use "Move Selection to New File" a lot for refactoring. But the location of the new file has to be the same folder than the current file. Why?
I can "Move Selection" to "dataadapter_aggregate.hpp", creating a new file in the same folder.
Why can't I "Move Selection" to "dataadapter\aggregate.hpp" instead, creating a new folder and moving the selection to a file there?
When I enter \ or /, the dialog says "Invalid characters in a file name".
Suggestion: Allow folders here as well and create the (sub) folders if they do not exist.
That would be a great help. |

We are considering allowing you to set the directory at the same time:
case=72586
The design we use with our refactoring commands is to try and keep them simple and focussed, so if you want to perform a more complex operation you can chain two or three commands together. This though is a case where you do want to do everything in one step.

Move Selection to New File should allow folders...
