How can I move (it's a copy + delete) a track from one crate to another crate?

Which key (SHIFT, CNTRL or ALT?) must I use? Which mouse button to use (normally left)?

Thanks.

You cannot copy and delete automatically. You can copy track(s) by simply highlighting the track(s) (Ctrl+left click selects multiple files) and then left click hold and drag them into the new crate. However, you then must manually delete the track(s) in the old crate by highlighting them and pressing Ctrl+Del.

I think it's a missing function ... "MOVE a track from one crate to another."

I WOULD use it often when I get new tracks and sort them during the dj night.

Hi pueblofunky.

When you are playing live, there is the possibility of moving out a track form a crate, and then wondering where you put it. We've made the deletion of a track more difficult than other applications purely because of the problems that can arise from a accidentally deleted or moved file. It's fairly painless to move files other than this, but it does save a lot of headaches with the existing functionality.
