GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 256437
Select multiple appointments in day/week views (works in list view)
Last modified: 2021-05-19 11:44:37 UTC
I'd like to be able to select several appointments at once, by doing shift+click, so I can do things like copy and paste multiple appointments from one date to another, delete several appointments at once, etc.
still valid for evolution1.5-1.5.91.0.200407250730-0.snap.ximian.8.1.
one even cannot do this in list view. so it's not possible at all currently, as immediately the text field gets input focus. running 2.3.5.1
well, but if i take a look into http://cvs.gnome.org/viewcvs/evolution/calendar/gui/dialogs/delete-comp.c?r1=1.23&r2=1.23.4.1 there are obviously strings to pop up when deleting multiple appointments: Are you sure you want to delete " "%d appointments?" so where is the code refering to/pointing on this? after searcing in the code for the id, nowhere i guess. :-(

this also refers to the list view.

Bumping version to a stable release.
This works with Shift and Ctrl + click in Evolution version 3.2 in the list view, but not in the day view. John: Does that fulfil your needs?
8 years and (somewhat) fixed by coincidence? *sigh*

I'm using Evolution version 3.12.9, the missing ability to select more than one event in any view is annoying when importing / editing multiple events. This bug still persists after nearly 12 years and 9 other bug reports being merged. Still showing the bug state "NEW". The allrounder and standard pim-application of the GNOME desktop can do better :)
Marco van Veen: Without unlimited manpower and in an issue tracking system where anybody can come up with feature requests, age of a report is entirely irrelevant. Relevant for progress is that you provide a patch. Please contribute to do better: https://wiki.gnome.org/Git/Developers . Thanks.

GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org. As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org (resources are unfortunately quite limited so not every ticket can get handled). If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent and supported software version, then please follow https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines and create a new enhancement request ticket at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/evolution/-/issues/ Thank you for your understanding and your help.
