What

FileWaveThe has long had the ability to move client device records either by drag and drop, or by the "Move To..." command.command moves Versiona 14Fileset bringsinto thisanother sameFileset "group without dragging it through the Filesets list.

When to use it

Use Move To..." capability to filesets as well.

When/Why

Drag and drop is all well and good, but with thousands of filesets potentially, it could takewhen a long timeFilesets tolist makes drag and drop filesetsslow aroundor the fileset window.  Plus, drag and drop also has the distinct possibility of accidentally dropping in the wrong place.  For those reasons, we recommend you try the new "Move To..." option if moving filesets around.

How

Moving a fileset is in fact even easier now, just:

    Find the filesetwhen you want to move and highlight it Right click on the fileset and choose "Move To..." From the dialog, choose the destination forgroup explicitly.
