Hey there,


sorry if the following suggestion has been brought up already and I did not find it in the forum.

If (in the Project and Actions Review Views) I mark/select several actions, I feel it would be very useful to be able to change their status, context or topic in one go. Right now, only the displayed action is changed, so I have to go to each action and do the change one by one.

I do not even think that a nag question would be necessary (do you really want to edit all the selected # actions?), but maybe that could be configured and on at the first time by default.

Maybe individual fields such as notes and dates could be inaccessible for editing while several actions/projects are selected.

Perhaps smilar for multiple projects (bulk change topic, priority, "Chain actions" status).

What do you think?

Sebastian

Hi Sebastian,

this is already possible, just maybe not the way you'd expect:
  • Mark one or more thoughts with Ctrl or Shift
  • Right click on one of the marked thoughts
  • Select Change Context/Criteria/Topic/Status/Project
There you go

Regards

You can also select the actions on the Review Actions screen. If they all have something in common, filter appropriately, use Ctrl+A and then the appropriate button at the top. You can also change their action date in one go.
