When Raw file moved *.XMP file is not.

When i use Ctrl+C (copy), Ctrl+X (cut) command to move RAW (Sony ARW) image file to new folder XnView does NOT move XMP file generated for that image so XMP rating is lost after RAW image loaded.

XMP generated in FastRawViewer and i used "Update Catalog from files" command to loaded XMP rating before moving file.

Hi,

Have you linked these files to the settings/Browser/File List ?

Nice, thanks.

Did not realize i had to check this option "Companion files linked for move/copy/rename action"

Thank you for your pointing to the right setting, Franky. I wonder whether the two settings "Companian files linked for delete action" and "Companian files linked for copy/rename/move action" shouldn't be checked and thus active by default.
