Does anyone know how to copy one file in a container to a different container?

F5 doesn't work, I wonder why.

You can use the green address bar button and select file container to copy it's content to actual file container.

Or - use Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V shortcuts to copy individual files, it works.

Using the green icon opens the file containers folder, then you have to select the file container. I like using the dual panes, so you're ctrl-c ctrl-v works good, thanks for that. I wonder why I can do that, but not just a drag and drop across panes?

F5/F6 are for file operations, items inside file containers are just information with the file path, not real files, but Ctrl+C/V work, so also F5/F6 might work.

Perhaps it might cause problems, since it's also possible to copy the files from file container to a real location, but maybe it's possible to implement, don't know.
