Junbesi Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 This was going to be a feature request, but I thought others might have a different approach to solving this problem.I have a lot of subdirectories with the same generic name (like "images"), so being able to pass a little bit of the path when I'm using "Move To..." would remove the need to squint at the parent directories to find the one I want.Like if I had:1. "~/Project/images"2. ".../Documents/images"3. "/Users/BeefBurger/Other/images"I could type "Documents/im" in the "Move To.." pane and it would display option 2.Let's do it picture book style:FILE SEARCH:SELECT "MOVE TO...": SEARCH WITH PATH: (I used MAMP because file searching is actually surprisingly revealing...)I hope I've explained the issue well enough. Let me know if there's another method of acheiving the same kind of thing. Link to comment

Sorry about the slow reply, I missed your thread. You should be able to both paste a path (not ../ though) into the Move To... or search for a folder name directly and then navigate forward and back (searching within a folder) until you find the folder you are looking for. I think in your example, you need to type 'mamp', then navigate into that folder using cmd+down, then you can search within that folder for another folder. Cheers, Andrew Link to comment
