What is an efficient way to move multiple subcategories to a different parent category?

Question

Been using quicken forever. I'm looking for an efficient way to move multiple subcategories to a different parent category. For example, I have a PARENT CATEGORY A with 20 subcategories and I want to move 10 of the subcatetories to a new PARENT CATEGORY B. In the past, I would have to individually open all of the 10 subcateories and assign them a new parent category.

Is there a way to "bulk" reassign them, or is there a way to "drag and drop" them into the new parent category?  They old way is just a pain to do.

Moving a subcategory to another parent category is very simple.  All you need to do is edit the subcategory and and change the parent category in the drop down list under "Subcategory of".  Just create the new parent category and then edit the subcategories you want to move to the new parent category.

I'm going through a pretty exhaustive reorganization, probably moving 30 or so subcategories around. Just thought that there would be a more user friendly way to do it. Thanks.

You can Mass-Move the transactions (even from multiple existing categories) to another single category …  but I don't know of any way to mass-move the categories themselves.

Moving  one category at a time appears to be the only way.  But that's only a half-dozen, or so, clicks per category, which doesn't seem particularly onerous to me.
