Shortcuts for copying and moving into database

DEVONthink
1

Is there a manual / help page dedicated to all the shortcuts for copying or moving files into the database?

Specifically I am looking for ways to

  • Move into database (remove in finder)
  • Move out ouf database (remove in DEVONthink)
  • Index / link in DEVONthink (via drag / drop)
  • Remove index without deleting in finder
2

In Taking Control of DEVONthink, see the chapter titled “Get Information into DEVONthink”. And in the DEVONthink manual, see the chapter titled “IN & OUT”. If you haven’t yet downloaded the book and the manual, they’re free downloads at DEVONtechnologies | Handbooks and Extras .

As noted by @amalis, you can check the help. Also…

  • Move into database (remove in finder)

Command-drag

  • Move out ouf database (remove in DEVONthink)

This is currently not possible.

  • Index / link in DEVONthink (via drag / drop)

Command-Option-drag

  • Remove index without deleting in finder

This is only possible with indexed parents or individually indexed items as described in Help > Documentation > In & Out > Importing & Indexing > Indexing and the filesystem.
