62 | Files can be copied into the collection by dragging and dropping. The mouse
|
---|
63 | pointer becomes a ghost of the selected item (or, if more than one is selected,
|
---|
64 | the number of them). Drop the selection into the Collection Tree to copy the
|
---|
65 | files there (if the source was the Workspace Tree) or move them around within
|
---|
66 | the collection (if the source was the Collection Tree).
|
---|
67 | <p></p>
|
---|
68 | When copying multiple files, they are all placed in the target folder at the
|
---|
69 | same level, irrespective of the folder structure they occupied originally.
|
---|
70 | When you copy a second file with the same name into the same folder, you are
|
---|
71 | asked whether to overwrite the first one. Respond "No" and the file will not be
|
---|
72 | copied, but the others will be. To cancel all remaining copy actions, click the
|
---|
73 | "stop" button.
|
---|
74 | <p></p>
|
---|
75 | Only the "highest" items in a selection are moved. A folder is higher than its
|
---|
76 | children. You cannot select files within a folder and also the folder itself.

|

80 | When you add a file, the Librarian Interface searches through the source
|
---|
81 | folders for auxiliary files containing metadata previously assigned to the
|
---|
82 | added file and, if it finds one, begins to import this metadata. As the
|
---|
83 | operation proceeds, you may be prompted (perhaps several times) for extra
|
---|
84 | information to match the imported metadata to the metadata sets in your
|
---|
85 | collection. This process involves many different prompts, described in the <a href="importingpreviouslyassignedmetadata.htm#importingpreviouslyassignedmetadata">Importing Previously Assigned Metadata</a> section. For a more detailed
|
---|
86 | explanation of associating metadata with files read Chapter 2 of the Greenstone
|
---|
87 | Developer's Guide -- Getting the most out of your documents.
