Project Tree Drag & Drop

------------------------

The project tree allows drag & drop to a certain extent to allow you to reorder your documents and

folders. Moving a document in the project tree will affect the text's position when you assemble

You can drag and drop documents and regular folders, but not root folders. If you select multiple

items, they can only be dragged and dropped if they are siblings. That is, they have the same

user interface framework novelWriter is built upon.

Documents and their folders can be rearranged freely within their root folders. If you move a

**Novel Document** out of a **Novel** folder, it will be converted to a **Project Note**. Notes can
