Hey all I'm new here. Got a quick question for you, I'm trying to be extra organized with my Encounter files (GM) but it seems like there is no Moving files from one category to another in the Library, or way to make it so the file names don't overlap. Am i missing something or is this actually true?

Welcome to roll20 Michael.   You can drag/drop journals/handouts into and out of folders in your sidebar journal as well as the art library. ( <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Folders" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Folders</a> )  There's a 5 deep nesting limitation, but that should be plenty to organize your game's data.

Thank-you for the nice Welcome. Also thanks for clearing that up i had been trying to drag and drop them but didn't realize there was a "handle". Probably should have done a better search instead of just running to the forums but thanks for helping me out.

ninjad! :) yeah it took me months to figure out. To drag: You have to grab items at the very left to move them. When you mousedown and then begin dragging, If you see the 3 lines appear then you've got it right. If you see the name in a big box then you grabbed it too far to the right. That is for the handouts/characters. I've no idea about the image library.

Thanks Chris, yeah kept getting the box and was freaking out thinking I'm doing what it shows... turns out not so much. As for the image Library if i remember correctly you can just Copy them around between folders.
