Every single time I move a folder full of layouts in the Manage Layouts dialog, FM is making it a subfolder of what is directly above it. I can't get it to stop. Can anyone give me pointers?

I want:

Level 1

SubA

SubB

SubC

And I'm getting this when I try to move C to be above A:

Level 1

SubC

SubA

SubB

I am not able to get A or B out of C unless I move them above C...which then puts all below into the just moved folder. Very frustrating!!

Well that didn't show up correctly. See attached. The folders with red dots should be in the same outermost level.

Drag to the left a bit, you'll see the highlight move.

:o) Thanks for not putting that in a condescending tone...and I'm completely serious about that. Unfortunately, I've been trying that for the last few hours. Nothing works except moving the folder above one that's on the same level that I want to drop the selected one on. Once I drop it, All of the folders below it become subfolders of the selected. I've worked in IT for 10 years and I know how to move folders. This is about to bring me to tears.

I rarely get the four directional "move" arrows that puts the indicator line where the folder will go. 95% of the time I only get the up and down arrows.

Plus I only have 210 layouts. I read 255 was the magic number for the max layouts that can be displayed.

The only thing I can think to do at this point is to recreate all of the folders, in the order I want them, and move the layouts into the new folders.

I was finally able to work around this problem. I had to first create/recreate and organize all of the folders and subfolders that I wanted at the top of the layout list. Then I had start at the bottom of of the layout list and move all of the layouts into the correct folders. I deleted the existing organizational structure as I went from bottom to top. It was a pain but it worked. I don't know what I'll have to do if I need to create a folder in the middle of my structure. Crossing my fingers is my best bet at this point! Thanks Vaughn for your help.

You are dragging in the wrong direction. To move a folder out of its nested position, you need to drag it down until the highlight indicator shows up below the lowest file/folder in the hierarchy that it is inside of.
