Drag and drop items on Mac
You can drag and drop items to do things like move or copy files and folders, add an image to an email, or move text around in a document.
On your Mac, select an item you want to drag—such as an image or block of text.
Press and hold the trackpad or mouse while you drag the item to a new location.
To copy the item instead of moving it, press and hold the Option key while you drag.
Release the trackpad or mouse to drop the item in the new location.
Thanks for your feedback.
