To Drag Catalog Items Between Content Browser Windows

Use this procedure to send tools, tool palettes, or tool packages from one catalog location to another by dragging them between two Content Browser windows.

Moving an item removes it from its original location, while copying an item retains the original.

Note: You must have write access to the original catalog before you can move it.

1. Open two Content Browser windows.
2. In the first Content Browser window, display the catalog item that you want to move or copy.
3. In the second Content Browser window, open the catalog, category, tool palette, or tool package to send the item to (only tools can be sent to palettes and packages).
4. In the first Content Browser window, move the pointer over the i-drop icon associated with the item to be moved, so that the pointer image changes to an eyedropper ().
