Moving
The selected category can be moved with its contents to another part of the category tree. You can select a category in which the selected category should be moved to in the window that opens on calling this function. The category is always added in the last position.
Alternatively categories can be moved via drag & drop. The selected categories can be precisely placed in the desired location using this method. You can drag the category to the desired locating by left clicking on it. Various markers are shown for orientation as to where the category will be moved to. When the desired location is found the category can be dropped.
The category can be permanently removed from the system with delete. You will need to confirm that the category should be deleted after making this selection. All assets that are not also assigned to another category will be put in the undefined folder (only visible to administrators).
