[digiKam-users] Moving Folder/Files

Gerhard
Hi,

as i imported several folders from different sources, and now want to
reorder them in a better way, i find reordering inside digiKam to be
limited in applying it.

Basicly i have two folders A and B, containing *many* Subfoldes A01, 02,
03 ... B01, 03, 03 (literally hundreds of folders, day by day....) and
so on...  digiKam has already processed, tagged, facerecognitioned...
What i aim to do is dropping ones contents (Bxx) into the other (A).

Doing this  from Win* file explorer is quite easy. But would i loose
tagging, face recognition, thumbs and so on?

Doing this from inside digikam i can only drag/drop one subfolder time
by time, which is notable slower (including each confirmation for
submenue "move to") than on file explorer.

And since target folder list is longer than space in digiKam collecions
screen, there is no easys way do get to the point to drop to. (Found
workaround for  this by reordering upside down)

Is there a conveniant way to achievt this reordering, withou loosing 
metadata / linkings in digiKam?


Cheers, Gerhard
