TheSky more. They added a combo box on the top of detail dialog which allowed<br>
to pick object you want. Such approach extends naturally to list view. It<br>
should be possible to view one object in details or all objects at once with<br>
limited amount of info and switch between them easily.<br></blockquote></div><br>Alexey: I noticed that the current details dialog doesn't have the combo box; but I could realize what is it that you are actually trying to point out. By adding a combobox at the top of the details dialog, it should work for individual and multiple objects as well. Basically, the idea is to use the same model for two different views AFAIK right?<br>
<br>P.S Attached 2 previews of the solution that could integrate both the list view and details view. [If "Show Details" checkbox is checked, then the detail dialog contents will be shown, otherwise, the simple list with multiple columns will be shown].<br>
