Description Allan Day 2013-05-08 09:31:05 UTC
There's been a round of changes to the selection pattern; these are intended to
overcome a bunch of issues that we've encountered with the existing design.

Details of the updated design can be found here:

https://live.gnome.org/GnomeOS/Design/Whiteboards/SelectionPattern

Some of the changes already exist in contacts, but there are a few things that it is missing, such as ctrl+click and shift+click to select.
Comment 1 Allan Day 2014-04-08 10:52:00 UTC
To clarify - holding shift or ctrl and clicking on contacts in the list should activate selection mode. We should also support selecting ranges of contacts using shift + click.
Comment 2 Niels De Graef 2018-01-21 20:42:46 UTC
Allan, do you still want this with the latest mockups?
