sub7:

To cut or paste a file you must previously copy it.

When you copy a file (or files when multiselection settings option is active) that file is temporarily placed in the clipboard.
Pressing the clipboard icon (the middle icon in the right toolbar) the clipboard content is shown.
Only if the clipboard content is not empty it is possible to paste (copy) or cut (move) the files.

When you keep your finger over a file or folder (for about 1 second) a popup or context menu opens.
There you will find the copy, delete and other functions.

Just a question please, before i do anything stupid...thanks to fileboxes ridiculous ease of use abilities i am tempted to move my apps from opt folder to apps folder.

Is this going to be suicidal or can someone please educate me on how to do this correctly?

TIA!

I guess apps folders is in MyDocs, right?
You can move the folders and make symlinks to them in /opt folder
Just make sure there's no symlinks inside the folders you want to move (symlinks doesn't work on MyDocs cause it's a vfat partition)

EDIT:
Anyways, I don't recomend you to do this.
If you want to save space, then frist you should try doing this in /home/user folder. I've symlinked Quake3 and Kroll files to MyDocs and get a lot of space.

There's an option in FileBox for this (press the first icon in toolbar and you'll see this option)
