Copying multiple suggestions at once #4

Open juhoinkinen opened 2 years ago

Adding a way to copy multiple suggestions at once to clipboard could speed up using Finto AI with other systems, especially Melinda.

On each row of the suggestions list there could be a checkbox that would be used to select the suggestion for copying, and on top of the checkbox column one checkbox for selecting/deselecting all suggestions. (Should initially all suggestions be selected or deselected?) For the actual copying there could be three copy buttons like now, which would copy either labels, URIs, or both with language code for Melinda. (Where should the buttons be placed?)

This copy-many feature would be mostly useful for Melinda. It may not be very useful for just labels and URIs. (Which should the format of the list of labels/URIs be, comma-separated?) So, it could be better to have the feature only for copying Melinda formatted suggestions, and the current copy buttons for labels and URIs could be left as they are.

Also, this feature should be coordinated with Melinda, for the right format for the list of suggestions for Melinda. Also, Melinda's update to new system (from Aleph) should be kept in mind. (Could there be an even better way to connect Finto AI and the new Melinda system than via clipboard?)
