Possibly, but that could cause more confusion. In your example, rows 7, 12, 22, 30, 42 and 56, if moved up one would then become rows 6,7,8,9,10 and 11. That makes send for drag drop as you are plucking them out and then inserting them into a specific place but for moving up/down a row at

Well, I expect most people will be moving continuous selections. Non- continuous selections are a special case really. I think in terms of simplifying things it would be better to move the grouping into another interaction as opposed to putting 2 interactions into one command. There could

Simon, Have you tried putting your alias in to email field of the acount/info panel? If it is set up on the server, this should enable it to show up in the list. You just want to separate it from your other address with a cama. On Jul 29, 2009, at 3:47 PM, Simon Cavendish wrote:
