drag and drop feature in FTP/SFTP
1 vote
Hello,
One of my clients has requested an enhancement to add support for drag-and-drop functionality within the FTP/SFTP session in RDM. Currently, while users can download files from the built-in SFTP browser, the inability to drag and drop files directly from the remote host to the local pc remains impossible.
Proposed Improvement:
implementing a drag-and-drop feature to enhance usability when interacting with remote files would complement the current right-click and download functionality, making file transfers more intuitive and user-friendly.
Best regards,
Carl Marien

I am trying to transition from a competitor's product to RDM, and this would be a huge help in the training load. We have a consistent need to download files from remote Linux boxes, and an intuitive download process would be so much easier to communicate. Today, they have a drag/drop interface integrated with their SSH CLI session, very similarly to your own, but yours only allows dragging up to the remote server, not down from it. That limitation means I have to train each of them to right-click on the file and select download. It's not much, but it's enough to keep people from making the switch.
Thank you.
