Description John J. Barton

1. Open the Orion navigator on a project
2. create a new folder
3. pick any file in the parent and check the box on the LHS, then select More>Copy

The dialog that opens does not include the new folder you just created to hold the copies!

I observe that it's not in the precomputed list of where you might want to copy, but you can get to it from the "choose folder" dialog.  Is this what you mean?  Or are you not seeing it in the choose folder dialog?

I don't use the Choose Folder Dialog unless I am really desperate, it's too slow. 

New folders should be in the precompute list.

Choose Folder Dialog should open scrolled to the current project and with the current folder open. 

Then easy things would be easy and hard things hard.

Another closely related problem: I often want to 'clone' a file, meaning copy its contents with a new name. As far as I can tell the only practical way to do this is open the input file, select all, copy, go back to the navigator, New File, type new name, find and click on new name, paste. Way too slow.

This one you can do by selecting the file in the navigator, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+V. You will be prompted for a new name.

I've put bug 382771 comment 2. Not sure if they are really duplicated or not.
