<br>It seems from these screenshots like we are trying to indicate copying progress by deselecting items as we copy them, and I do not know of another OS that does that.<br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jul 18, 2012 at 6:57 AM, Anish Mangal <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:anish@activitycentral.com" target="_blank">anish@activitycentral.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I would like to propose the long-discussed-finally-implemented ;-)<br>
journal entry batch operation and multi selection feature for<br>
inclusion in sugar-0.98. All the necessary and relevant details should<br>
be present in the associated feature page:<br>

<br>
AFAIK, This feature was initially brought up in discussions in EDUJam<br>
in 2011 and an initial implementation was made by Martin Abente. The<br>
current implementation, done by Ajay, has been derived from that<br>
keeping the UI experience largely the same while significantly<br>
speeding up operations like select/deselect.<br>
<br>
Should you have any design related questions about this, feel free to<br>
reply to this thread.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Anish<br>
