In the Layer Manager, is there a way to move a layer that is nested within a folder to a different folder? The only method I have found is create a new layer in the correct folder, move the content to that new layer, and then delete the old layer.

That is not right. Regular drag and drop should work.

I believe so, I am on build 26.4022 for Win64.
Where do you drag and drop from? In my Layer Manager panel there doesn't seem to be that functionality. Say I wanted to move one of these layers in the 02 Site folder into a different folder?

Yes, thank you very much! The folder menu was completely collapsed on my screen and I didn't realize it was there.

The whole attribute UI is a mess and who ever signed off on it must hate users. Of course it should be possible to move attribute items to a folder even with the top pane collapsed in folder view or for list view (which is forced for searches). And someone at GS obviously thought the same as it is possible in the attribute palette by right click. Should it be that hard for a professional software developer to maintain consistency across a features introduced in the same release?
