The Branch box as a destination?

Post by davidh »

After some period of using the new commands Set as destination and Move/Copy to destination, I found that much more often I need to use as a destination the place just below a side Branch box than at the end of a side branch.
Since it will always depend on what kind of transformations you need to relocate more frequently, the opinions on that matter will differ.
However, if the Branch box was enabled as a destination as well, it would be possible to relocate the image anywhere without need to use Move up as an additional command.

You can currently set a side branch as the destination using the ctrl-shift click. For the next release, I added Set as Destination to the right-click context menu for branches as well and fixed a problem that could cause a crash for branches. I also removed the four commands for copy/move from the Edit menu as they do not work since clicking on a new image to copy or move it clears the destination.

Thanks.
I was not aware of this shortcut as I mostly use the contex menu.
Now I see it is mentioned in the Help.
