Interesting! We had a customer writing in with the opposite opinion a while ago:
http://ideas.projectplace.com/feedbacks/225488-copy-folde...
I agree that we could communicate better the difference between copy and cut.
When you copy a folder, a new folder is created that has a copy of the contents of the old one, The history and other attributes, like access rights, however, are the same as if you had created a new folder. They stay with the original.
When you cut and paste a folder, you just move it. All the history and access rights are still there.
So Ulrica, your problem could be solved by creating a copy of the folder (and then possibly deleting the original) in the new location.
Let us know what you think would be the best solution to this:)
The problem with this solution is you then loose all the meta data that was on the original document. I am guessing that the audit trail (History) is pretty important to keep.
Absolutely...and we can't keep the history when you copy...because then you would have multiple documents with the same history...which I guess wouldn't make much sense.
The top ideas with status Quality Backlog are discussed on a regular basis with the design team. These should be minor development, and could include hygiene factors, little things that create a wow effect and ideas that could have a positive effect on a lot of users.
Hi all,
We are doing a pre-study for a better overview and a better way to set access rights in Projectplace. No new functionality is included in the scope of the project but we want to make the existing functionality easier to use. If you want to help, we would be grateful to know in which situations you are when you find the current solution frustrating. What do you think could improve it?
A new report for folder access is included in the release tonight. Read more about that and other improvements in my blog http://projectplaceideas.wordpress.com/2010/11/09/release...
Best regards,
Karolina
