[X4U] Move this ?

[Brett Conlon]

Ahah!  So I'm not the only one.

The funny thing is that I also suspected I may have been too hasty and 
tried waiting until the final destination folder had completely opened and 
was sitting idle for a few seconds before I dropped the file - still no 
copy.

I fink its broke!

Yes, although I don't use the space bar. Sometimes it seems like a timing
(hand/eye coordination, letting go the button) kind of thing. If I hear 
the
heads rattle I usually know it's worked. In my case the destination 
folder's
closed before I realise it hasn't worked.

I suspect that if I hesitate over the destination folder before letting 
go,
it doesn't work.
