Moving file from Inbox to an indexed folder

[rjudice]

Up until recently, if I moved a file from one of my inboxes into one of my indexed folders (say “Folder A” in “Database 1”):

1. the file moved from the inbox to indexed Folder A in Database 1 in DEVONthink
2. the file moved to indexed Folder A in Finder
3. the file is now indexed

Now, if I move the file:

1. the file moves from inbox to indexed Folder A in Database 1 in DEVONthink
2. the file does NOT move to the indexed Folder A in Finder, but rather is moved to Database 1
3. the file is NOT indexed

I’m not sure what’s changed (updated to version 3.9.1?). Any help to figure out why the change in behavior and what I might to to get back to the original behavior.

P.S. Under the second scenario, I can use the “Move to External Folder” feature (as step 4) to achieve the desired result but that’s just one more step.

Is anything logged to Windows > Log? Where are the indexed files located in the filesystem?

Nothing logged in Windows > Log.

The post-move indexed file is located here:

Update: It appears that the “old” behavior is the same when moving a file from within the same database’s inbox to the indexed folder. So the “new” behavior is limited to moving a file from the Global Inbox or one of my many other databases.

@cgrunenberg: I have reproduced this here, moving an imported file in the Global Inbox into a newly indexed group in another database.

This is a Finder folder I know has never been indexed in another database.

And no hidden preference is set:

And @rjudice: yes, you should still have the Move To External Folder command available and useful.

Fixed for the next release.
