Proceed as follows:
1. Tap inside a split window to activate it as starting point.
2. Navigate to the directory with the relevant files using one or more of the following Options:
a. Select a drive.
b. Use the path navigation buttons (Root Directory, One Level Up).
c. Use the Search function
3. Once in the correct directory, start selecting one or more folders or files by tapping the
Check Boxes .
4. Observe that the Location Icon in the opposite split window changes to the Destination
Icon . As soon as you start a collection by checking the first item, the active directory of the
opposite split window is set as destination by default. You can change this any time by
navigating to a different directory and tapping the
Location Icon . Consequently, the Loca-
tion Icon changes to the Destination Icon .
5. Continue gathering folders and files by repeating steps 1-3.
6. Compile a second collection (optional) by activating the opposite split window (tap the
area of folder contents) and proceed in the same fashion as described in steps 1-5. Note,
that selected files of collection 1 appear grayed out. A file or folder can´t be member of 2
collections at the same time. Navigate back in collection 1 and uncheck the item first be-
fore adding it to collection 2 and vice versa.
7. Activate a split window with an active collection, check the correct destination in the op-
posite window and tap the button for the chosen task.
8. (Optional) Repeat step 7 for existing collections of the opposite split window.

The design of the gathering process requires unique rules of selection to avoid logical conflicts.

ARENTING
The G9 file manager uses the concept of parenting , which applies to selecting folders of a hierar-
chy. When checking a folder (Parent), all contained files and folders (Children) are checked like-
wise. If you check a parent and open the folder afterwards to uncheck files and folders to be ex-
cluded from the collection, the parent will remain checked. All its children stay checked, except for
those who were unchecked manually.
To facilitate this process the [Check All] and [Uncheck All]
buttons are available. Both buttons follow the concept of parenting as well.
