Question: Multi-select for assigning (custom) categories

[Udyr2647]

Hello, love the addon you've created. I like to set up custom categories for certain content blocks (Garrison stuff / Pvp Stuff / Darkmoon stuff, etc.); Your addons allows me to do that perfectly and exactly how I want to, great!

However; Lazy me has to click allooooot of menu's and there's plenty of items that I still need to assign to my preferred categories, I realize the flaw of my own preference: This takes allot of time to customize.

This had me wondering though: Is it possible to select multiple (individual) items, so not a whole group like consumeables and assign them all to a custom category? And if not, could this be a feature request?

Thank you.

Hey @Udyr2647,

I'm not a dev here, but I wanted to just add it really looks more complicated than it is.

Once you get a bit of practice with where to look for different settings, configuring Ark isn't so bad. I hadn't played since Wrath and it took me about a minute to set it up exactly how I wanted it in Classic. Anyway just play around a bit, you'll get there. (=

And, FWIW, I don't really feel the need to use custom categories very often. It's sort of a tempting thing when you're new to the addon, but there are better ways to organize.

multi select will probably never happen, you cant even select anything in edit mode.

what you can do is drag and drop, and while there is no interface feedback theres already code in there to allow you to (while in edit mode) drag an item onto a bar number to move its category there, or drag an item onto another item to move its category to the bar that item is in.

i can extend that code such that if you drag an item onto another item, and hold the ALT key down, the item being dragged will get assigned the category of the item you are dropping it onto (presuming its assigned to a custom category)

@Gogo1951 Thanks for your reply. It's not so much that I dont know how to configure, it's more that im creating custom categories that I'm spending allot of time creating them :). Bottom comment from @Arkayenro looks solid tho.

Thanks for your reply!

@arkayenro That would sound amazing! However, when I'm in edit mode neither dragging nor alt+dragging makes the items move for me. Is there some setting that I'd have to toggle?

Thanks.

theres no interface feedback for the moves (its too hard to code) but it should work.

the alt drag is in the latest alpha i uploaded yesterday
