Confusing SwapFile
#6
Maybe you like to consider my workflow (it may change when Mike implements the sync features).

I manage my sheets myself (not automatically by MS), saved on an external SD card (for space reasons). 

I use Dropbox/Dropsync to keep the sheets on three mobile devices in sync (1 mobile, 1 Android tablet, 1 Surface Pro). Obviously I have Dropbox on my Windows PCs, too.

So when I edit a sheet (mostly on a PC), it will be synced to all devices. If the name isn't changed you don't have to change something in MSP. You only have to regard if the changes in the sheet may influence some annotations if you have any (page changes, other size of the notation, whatever).

Mike, I think it would be useful to give MSP some more rudimentary file managing capabilities. I don't think of sophisticated stuff or a blown-up GUI but maybe just an option to rename or move a sheetfile from within with direct adjustment in the MSP db. Maybe just some additional menu like "filemanager" with submenus swap, move and rename (I don't think copy functions are necessary since it should be for file manipulation for sheets already in the db).
