Feature request Moving files into star rated folders

First of all I would like to thank you for creating FRV - its a shining star in the area of photo centric sofware.
I use a lot the feature of rejected and selcted folders.
But it would be nice to even refine it further and send files into a subfolder, as soon as rating them with a star from 1-5*.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Guido

Dear Guido:



Use 'Select by rating label' feature, then move selected files to folder you want.

Hi Alex,
thanks for your quick reply.
I know there is the 'move-to-folder' feature via keyboard m. But this implies that you manually create 5 (sub)folders for each folder you are working in. It would be much more comfortble if these new folders would be created automatically by FRV when you chose a 1-5 star rating, like with rejected or selected folders.

Dear Guido:



You want to combine two basic actions (marking and moving to a subfolder) into a single action.

The problem is that the number of combinations of such basic actions is at least several thousand (why, for example, not change the white balance along with marking a file with three stars; or rename a file according to some rule if it's marked with a green mark?)

Perhaps in the future we will provide a general mechanism for combining arbitrary actions (via scripts or action recording), but we certainly can't program all user-requested combinations of two (or more) basic actions into a predefined set.
