Custom icons for Move and Copy when dragging selected items [REQUEST]

Post by Thy Grand Voidinesss »

I propose making it possible for users to be able to choose icons of their liking for the mode of dragging selected items - i.e. when they see Move and Copy [and also the inability to do so] indicators

I for sure would different colors than one and the same and would unify them with other icons / programs that I use; as in my experience it helps to reduce stupid user errors and speeds work flow

The cursor should already hint at the action to perform (move or copy).

Currently, the cursor is set by the system.

I will consider an option to customize icons and cursors when dragging from Everything.
Thank you for the suggestion.

Yes it does

It is just my go-to file manager have replaced them with those chosen by its developer - and some other programs also indulge with this. And thus this creates chaos

So if I could choose the same icons in just two of my most often used programs that somehow manage files, I would gain 99% consistency.
