[SOLVED] xfce4 / Thunar problems moving files between folders

In XFCE4 I open THUNAR file manager, I am browsing DOCUMENTS.  If I move one file from DOCUMENTS, to ../PICTURES (by dragging it),
it will move it.  However, when I now browse PICTURES, I don't see the file I moved. Unless I click the REFRESH Icon in Thunar.

This started happening with very recent updates.

[UPDATE:] Solved after upgrading thunar (1.6.6-2 -> 1.6.7-1)

Re: [SOLVED] xfce4 / Thunar problems moving files between folders

You should report this at the upstream bug tracker. The Xfce developers are likely not reading this forum. wink

I could reproduce this bug with these steps:
1. Open two Thunar windows (Documents and Pictures folder)
2. Move a file from one folder to the other by using drag'n'drop

The result is that the file is moved but it is still shown in Thunar until a manual refresh.

EDIT: This is already fixed by this commit so Thunar 1.6.7 should work fine.
