Web - Rework search or tree selection, drag & drop for search mode #698

Closed dvstans closed 3 years ago

dvstans commented 3 years ago

In search mode, selecting items in the main tree breaks many/most actions that rely on selected nodes. Ideally, having the search panel open would not impact how the tree works, but due to the complexity of selecting search scope, it was changed to only allow specific selection rules. This breaks many other functions.

Need to determine a way to correctly support search scope selection without changing the behavior of the tree. This could entail adding collections to the separate selection list by dragging or a clicking an "add selected" button. This would require the selection to maintain a tree structure (or query selection lineage) to prevent nested selections and cross-scope selections.

This is done; however a new issue was opened to address missing d&d for search-specific tree entries that are not normally able to be dragged.
