Summary: Actions on multiple selections
Product: umbrello
Version: 1.1.1
Platform: Mandrake RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: umbrello-devel at kde.org
ReportedBy: stevan_white at hotmail.com
Version: 1.1.1 (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from: Mandrake RPMs
OS: Linux
Umbrello supports multiple object selection (for class objects anyway), for the purpose of moving. However, there are other actions one would want to perform on mutliple selections that are not supported, including:
1) delete
2) set color
3) set package
4) set class visibility
5) add class operation/attribute? Not clear why...
...
I would suggest producing a pop-up menu in response to a right-mouse-click on any of the selected objects. The menu would contain 'delete', and the ability to set any properties shared by all selected objects (such as 'color', and, if all the objects are classes, 'visibility'). Or perhaps the menu would lead to a 'properties' dialog, which wouldn't allow one to change the 'name', but only properties which can be shared by multiple objects.
The need for such a feature is very obvious when creating a class diagram containing hundreds of classes. This applies to the other kinds of diagrams as well.
