Multiple select of tasks to copy as text

[marisks]

Sometimes you have to copy tasks to send over email or so. It would be great feature if could select multiple tasks using Shift+Click and Ctrl+Click, then Copy and Paste somewhere.

Good feature, I actually expected this behavior from a keyboard centric windows app.

A story for it:

As a user, I select multiple tasks using the "standard" windows keyboard shortcuts for selecting multiple objects or text (ctrl, shift), so that I can execute commands on them at once, for instance to copy several tasks at once, delete several tasks, move several tasks (see #125).

I am working on this feature in my local copy of the repo right now.

Adding multiple selection to the task list requires many changes throughout the app, though 99% of the changes are to MainWindowViewModel.cs. Various features need to be modified, including: "J" and "K" for moving up/down and all commands related to updating tasks (update, mark complete, increase/decrease priority, remove priority, delete, etc.). The update command should not be fired if multiple selections are active; it should only work when only one selection is active.

Want me to add issues to account for the other features that would be affected?

No need to add new issues, but a comment on this issue about changes to existing behaviour would be good.

Cheers

Is this implemented? (just curious)

Multiple selection is only available in the development branch, currently. (You would need to compile the code yourself to get it.) A new production release from Ben will bring that function to everybody at some point.
