Cut and paste to another tab doesn't remove source files

Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

 The moved file remains by looking
at, but the cut&paste was successful in fact. The following steps
shows how to reproduct.

- Create ~/tmp1 and ~/tmp2
- Open those directories with nautilus.
- Create files named foo, bar and baz, respectively in tmp1.
- Search files with keyword "ba" and cut&paste it to tmp2.
- Then, you will see both bar and baz remaining in the tab in which
you firstly opend tmp1.

I cannot see if this is a bug or a proper spec. I encountered this
when I was laying out my photos. Since I assumed that the tab used for
search would behave in the same way two tabs without search operation
does, I misunderstood that the file was still there.

DistroRelease: Ubuntu 9.10

Hi,

Thank you for the contact. Sorry I might make you confused. The title
of the report was actually wrong. The moved file remains by looking
at, but the cut&paste was successful in fact. The following steps
shows how to reproduct.

- Create ~/tmp1 and ~/tmp2
- Open those directories with nautilus.
- Create files named foo, bar and baz, respectively in tmp1.
- Search files with keyword "ba" and cut&paste it to tmp2.
- Then, you will see both bar and baz remaining in the tab in which
you firstly opend tmp1.

I cannot see if this is a bug or a proper spec. I encountered this
when I was laying out my photos. Since I assumed that the tab used for
search would behave in the same way two tabs without search operation
does, I misunderstood that the file was still there.

Kind Regards,

Tatsuya

Ok this should be fixed with nautilus 2.31.X, now a transparent icon is presented to the user so they can determine easily which files were cut there, marking this as dup of bug 194213
