I want to MOVE files from one folder into another folder, on the same drive.
But I have to hold down the Command key (MAC) or it will COPY by default.
I looked everywhere to find a box I could click to change this default action.
This is very annoying when moving many pictures.
I know there are other ways to do a MOVE but I want to drag and drop.

Thank you for registering to the XnView forum and your request, larenm123.

Copying instead of moving is a bug on MacOS, see topic Drag and Drop Copy/Move. I just moved your request to "MP - Bug reports" that's the right place for it.

@Pierre: Could you please try to reproduce and confirm this bug on MacOS?

I use XnViewMP 0.84 on macOS 10.11.5, and can confirm this behaviour.

O.k., thank you, I can also reproduce the problem. Issue 1040 is fixed in next version.
