snippets Two Snippet management improvement requests

[Chris Messina 27]

I'd like to request two improvements to Snippet management:

 

1. The ability to drag a snippet from one Snippet Collection to another
2. The ability to change a snippet's Collection without being taken to view that snippet in the new collection. 

 

I'm currently in the process of reorganizing a couple dozen snippets and it's HIGHLY inefficient to try to move these things between collections.

I did discover that I can multiselect snippets and right-click to show a "Move-to" menu, but I had expected to be able to drag and drop.

You can just do this with the .json files in Alfred.alfredpreferences/snippets .  Folders there are groups in Alfred.

Ah, handy, thanks. But seems like it'd be more user friendly/discoverable just to support Finder-like conventions in the UI?

Drag and Drop snippets between collections is already in the plan, so you can expect this in a future release
