====== How to move files recreating the folder structure ====== This is a interesting feature of DropIt, because allow you to move your files in a destination directory, recreating the original folder structure. You can for example drag&drop a folder like:\\ ''C:\Directory'' To move files from:\\ ''C:\Directory\Subdirectory\File.txt'' To a new destination like:\\ ''C:\Destination**\Subdirectory**\File.txt''\\ or like:\\ ''C:\Destination**\Directory\Subdirectory**\File.txt'' As you can see, DropIt has recreated a portion of the path of your files (''\Subdirectory'' or ''\Directory\Subdirectory''). It works also with other actions like Copy, Compress, Extract and in general with all the actions that have a path as destination. You only need to use ''%SubDir%'' and/or ''%DroppedDirName%'' abbreviations in your destinations. For example, to move the files as described above, you will use these respective destination folders:\\ ''C:\Destination\%SubDir%''\\ ''C:\Destination\%DroppedDirName%\%SubDir%'' \\ ---- ===== Example ===== Let's consider that I have a main ''Media'' folder that contains subfolders of music, movies and other stuff. I'm not very neat, so there are some subfolders that contain ''mp3'', ''txt'', ''doc'', ''avi'' __together__. Now I want to extract only ''mp3'' files from there, but I want to keep the folder structure, because subfolders have names like ''U2'', ''REM'', ''Taylor Swift'', etc. What I need is to create a single association of DropIt, something like this:\\ Name: ''Move my music''\\ Rules: ''*.mp3''\\ Action: ''Move''\\ Destination: ''C:\My Music\%SubDir%'' And then drag&drop the ''Media'' folder on DropIt (yes, the folder that contains all my media files). The result will be something like this:\\ ''C:\My Music**\REM**\Everybody Hurts.mp3''\\ ''C:\My Music**\REM**\Losing My Religion.mp3''\\ ''C:\My Music**\Taylor Swift**\Love Story.mp3''\\ ''C:\My Music**\Taylor Swift**\You Belong With Me.mp3''\\ ''C:\My Music**\U2**\Beautiful Day.mp3''\\ ''C:\My Music**\U2**\With or Without You.mp3'' In bold you can see the folder structure recreated in this case by DropIt. An additional tip: from DropIt Options you can select "Ignore unassociated files/folders". It will help in this case, to ignore all other file formats during the process and do not have the popup message that asks if create new associations for them.
