Quick click causes "The destination folder is the subfolder of the source folder" error.

[Jonathan Batselos]

When a folder is selected and then the source folder of that folder is selected is quickly after it causes the "The destination folder is the subfolder of the source folder" error. Is there a way to disable this error message for this scenario and just keep it when moving files or folders. Video Attached.

Hi Jonathan Batselos,  

 

Greetings from Syncfusion support. 

 

We have checked your reported problem with FileManager component. You reported problem will occur when you drag and drop selected folders/files in same path. 

 

We have a workaround solution to resolve your problem. In this solution, we have check the drag and drop path of files/folder and prevent the drop action. 

 

Please, refer the below code snippet. 

 

  @Html.EJS().FileManager("file").AjaxSettings(new Syncfusion.EJ2.FileManager.FileManagerAjaxSettings 

{ 

    Url = "/Home/FileOperations", 

    GetImageUrl = "/Home/GetImage", 

    UploadUrl = "/Home/Upload", 

    DownloadUrl = "/Home/Download" 

}).View(Syncfusion.EJ2.FileManager.ViewType.Details).FileDragStart("dragStart").AllowDragAndDrop(true).FileDragStop("dragStop").Render() 

 

<script> 

    document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', function () { 

        var start_path; 

        var end_path; 

    }) 

    function dragStart(args) { 

        start_path = args.fileDetails[0].filterPath + args.fileDetails[0].name; 

    } 

    function dragStop(args) { 

        end_path = args.fileDetails[0].filterPath + args.fileDetails[0].name; 

        if (start_path == end_path) { 

            args.cancel = true; 

        } 

    } 

</script>
