Hi all, I wonder if anyone can help me be more successful at drag and drop. I've been trying to create folders and put them in the order I want and at the level I want in Vienna but this probably applies to other situations too.
I never seem to be able to get the folders where I want them. Quite often folders I want at the same level as other folders end up inside them instead. i.e. I want all the folders to be at level 0 but often when I drag a folder it ends up at level 1 inside another folder. I wonder whether the disclosure triangle has anything to do with this and I have always been confused by the disclosure triangle. I also wonder whether the use of quick nav affects how it works. I quite often get confused when VO says things like "folder bla level 1 expanded, 2 items and closed" - it seems odd to me that it can simultaneously say something is expanded and closed. Anyway I wonder if anyone can help me understand how to drag and drop folders. I don't know enough to know whether what I'm trying to do is impossible all together, impossible in Vienna or I'm simply doing the wrong thing. At the moment I have a folder I created called development and another called food. Food is further up the list and I want to put development before food. So I have quick nav on and have interacted with the table. I go to development, VO says "development edit text collapsed". I mark it for drag and drop and then move back up the list to food. But it seems no matter if I press drop, drop before or drop after I always seem to end up with the development folder inside food or another folder. All I actually want to do is have all the folders at level 0 and arranged alphabetically. But when I create a new folder in Vienna it often doesn't put it where I want which is why I got into this drag and drop in the first place. Can anyone help?
