GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 81842
**big usability issue**, more sophisticated file selecting needed
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
Hi, i would like to report a bug/feature request on selecting files and cells in treeviews(if possible), currently it's possible to select multiple items separately with holding down the ctrl key, but it's unsufficient, therefore it seems *really* important to me to add this feature before gnome2 arrives, as an explanation a screenshot showing this on win9x, you select files the same way as in nautilus by dragging a square, see http://www.laapp.miesto.sk/dragsquare.png with ctrl pressed you can select another multiple files to those already selected.. Other than that - gnome2 is really cool, and i love it :) Marek
(File selection is also planned to be completely redone for GTK+-2.4.) *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 80127 ***
