I do M-left M-up M-right to get past a parent. When moving down, M-left M-down M-right will get you to the end of that subtree, but otherwise it works just fine. - Carsten On Aug 11, 2009, at 11:36 AM, Scot Becker wrote: > +1 > > I always supposed there was some Good Reason (tm) for prohibiting > this, which I hadn't yet understood, so I never asked for it before. > But since PT asked, I'll join in. > > Scot > > > On Tue, Aug 11, 2009 at 10:24 AM, PT > wrote: >> Often I want to move an item or a subtree to an other location >> with M-up/down and I get the message "Cannot move past superior >> level". >> >> I think there could be an option allowing this behavior.
