Insomnia: [BUG] Moving requests out of folder

Created on 12 Jun 2017  路  5Comments  路  Source: Kong/insomnia

Overview

  • Insomnia Version: 5.2.0
  • Operating System: Win 8
  • Summary: Not possible to move requests into a parent folder with no requests in it.

How To Reproduce

Let's assume my folder structure looks like this:

  • Tool -> news -> #bunch of requests
  • Tool -> schedule -> #bunch of requests

Behaviour:
If i drag an request (i'll name it "request-1") from "news" and want to put it in the "Tool"-folder, there's always the "forbidden icon", so i'm not able to move it into an folder where _no other_ request is present.

If i firstly create an random request in my "Tool"-folder and then hover my dragged request-1 over the "Tool"-folder, the line-indicator finally shows up.

Other Notes

To simplify, i made a gif:

Ah yes. This has been a bug since the initial implementation of nested folder. I've been waiting for someone to notice it 馃槃

The reason for this behavior is that request can only be moved before or after other requests. (The same thing applies to folders.)

I'll see if I can find some time to fix this properly.

So, I spent probably a whole day on this issue a few months ago. Turns out I just needed to take a break. This time it took less than an hour to come up with a nice solution 馃槃

awesome! :-)
nice tool, again!

Is the problem fixed? In the meantime, I'm version version 6.3.2 and I'm having the same problem.
By the way, a really nice tool!

@tolgayildizz please create another issue if you are seeing this again
