Where is the Save and Move setting

#1

I am running Jaikoz v2.4.0 Beta 3 on OS X 10.4 and I am looking for the setting reference in online/offline manual (noted below)

3.3. Save and Move

Save and Move saves any changes and then moves the selected files to the specified folder, this is an easy way to move a set of processed files to another folder. By default it will create the subfolder hierachy underneath the selected folder using the values in the subfolder fields for the selected files, but you can move the files without creating the subfolder hierachy by unchecking the Create subfolders hierachy option

Its in the popup menu (near the bottom) and applies to all selected files.

Do people have problems with the popup menu, I could add the option to the File menu but if I did and it was selected would you expect it to apply ALL SELECTED files or ALL files

I found it now; thanks.

My preference would be an application setting used in the “Autocorrecter”; that after all the tag modification that the sub folder (based upon tags) and the files be moved. Typically I rip CDs into one directory; run Jaikoz and then manually copy into my Itunes directory (I perform a cp -R -n since OS X doesn’t support a “drag-n-drop” merge like MS file explorer.

A long, long time ago Jaikoz allowed you to select a write folder so that you could process files in one folder and save them to another. Trouble was people found it confusing because they thought their files had been deleted, I might look at reintroducing something along these lines.

Well if you make it a customized action; so it needs to be configured (or defaults to current directory) and then added to list of actions. The only possible issue is duplicate file issue (how to handle).

I would greatly appreciate such a feature. Regardless if you add such a feature I think this is the best application I have ever dealt with for “cleaning up” my MP3 collection.

So thank you for the application and thank you for the follow regarding my question.

People fill find any reason to bitch & complain. I am recent Linux to OS X convert and my primary reason for the move was not for pretty, but basically fully supported UNIX/hardware support. Your application has been the only one I have found that does what I want and I cannot complain (however I will add the move action to the suggestion box)

I must be missing something obvious. Where is this? When I save, I don’t get a pop up and I see no other option to allow the save and move.

It’s only in the contextual menu, i.e select some files and right click and select Save and Move ,then dialog comes up asking where you want the files to be put.

However, I dont know why I havent added it the Main Menu, whereby it will apply to any modified records listed in the Edit tab (i.e files that are hidden by filters wont be saved) in the same way that the Save option works. I going to add it for the next release.
