Question: does cutting remove files from current location? |
Yes, it's like I doesn't remove anything until explicitly being asked to be moved |
Not many file explorers even show what is there on the clipboard (Dropbox has a toast notification) Example of cutting a few items on Windows and Dropbox: Windows file explorer reduces the opacity of the icons, but no other indication of the clipboard other than a tiny "paste" action that goes from disabled to enabled, also it uses 20250103-1131-51.6243210.mp4Dropbox reduces opacity of the whole row, has a little dismissable toast notification at the bottom, and 20250103-1144-39.3852148.mp4Onedrive and Gdrive don't allow The div sounds nice, instead of the bottom right, we could use the unused space on the screen, for eg. the top right. What do you think of something like this (with of course the content-paste synmbol for the paste button)?

Description
When selecting files, it would be nice to be able to copy/cut/paste them.
We currently have the copy/move action, but considering the goal is to add shortcuts (ctrl+c/v/x), it means we would need a way to tell the user the current selection that is currently saved.
Maybe a bottom-right div that states the content of the /clipboard/ ?
