Multiple notebook selection for bulk tagging #1183

Open mursilsayed opened 4 years ago

mursilsayed commented 4 years ago

User should be able to select multiple notebooks in the notebook and apply tags to the selected notebooks with a single ui screen.

I want to apply tags to the imported markdown documents. With ver1.50 , the only option I have is to open each note book and apply tag to each notebook. Allowing multiple selection of notebook would significantly improve the end user experience especially when you are importing your existing markdown documents in the repository and also if you are refactoring your tagging scheme.

Thanks for putting effort into building mindforger. I am evaluating mind forger to use as my primary knowledge management tool. Currently most of my knowledge docs are stored in mind maps and markdown documents.

Make sense! Thank you for the suggestion Mursil!

tableView->setSelectionMode(QAbstractItemView::MultiSelection); - no way, breaks keyboard only navigation in tables.

I would like to give it priority - what's your OS? (Linux distro/macos or Win?). Features usually take less of my time than actual release 😉

I am using Kubuntu 18.04

I would like to add that allowing multiple note selection would be much more frequently used feature. Example: If I want to apply tags info/react/resources & info/react to multiple notes in a notebook, I should be able to select the notes that I want to apply these tags and then add tags to these notes.

Design: the most straightforward seems to be a dialog with check boxes & tags allowing to choose Os to modify and tags to add. Menu File/Tag mgmt
