[solved] Moving photos from one catalogue to another

Hi,

I currently have two catalogues in usage: The first one for all of my photos and a second one for my nexcloud autoimports from the smartphone-camera.
Both are added into ON1 and can be used. But when sorting my photos I want to move those from the nextcloud-catalogue to the "regular one". But I only can copy them, but not move.
Is there a way to move them I haven´t found or is this not working?

 

Thanks

  Update:

  Just found it out by myself. Drag & Drop does NOT work when moving from one catalogue to another.

  But when using the Copy / move button on the top right corner it is working.

  This happens because of how the OS handles dragging and dropping. Whenever you drag a file from one drive to another the OS will always copy the file, not move it. On the Mac OS you can hold the option key while dragging to force the deletion of the original file once it has been copied to the new drive. I don’t know if Windows offers anything similar.

   The option key drag and drop works inside ON1s Browser as well.

  Windows does offer the same Feature. But it does not work in ON1.
