Alternative for right-drag

[mak...@vad1.com]

The features available in right-click-drag menu (such as Move versioned items here) are great, but their activation method is a problem because it is obscure and not all computers actually support it. I don't know any other software that relies on right-drag. Bootcamp drivers for Macbook Pro have never supported right-drag on trackpad, not in the past 6 years at least. I am carrying a physical mouse in my bag for the sole purpose of activating this feature, which is ridiculous.

Is there another method of accessing these commands that does not involve right-drag?

A Windows computer requires a right mouse button to work. Context menus are everywhere...

As for "move versioned item here" there's the command "Rename..." in the context menu: you can specify a new path there and the file gets moved, not just renamed.

You can also move/copy files directly in the repository browser.

Thanks! Both methods work, with a slight inconvenience that in Rename... I have to move files one by one, and the repo browser can move several at once but wants to commit every operation immediately.

The right-click context menus works of course (I wouldn't buy the MBP if they didn't!), however right-click-dragging doesn't, so I don't get the menu that should pop up after releasing the dragged item. It's very understandable people do not even recognise what I am asking about, because DRAGGING items with the RIGHT mouse button (note NOT LEFT mouse button) is a very obscure function in almost a complete disuse.

Context menus can be activated with the menu key (right from right-alt key), or the combination shift+F10
