I see multi selection Journal operations as a more advanced (occasional use) feature, so it would be OK not being directly visually exposed. So, no tick box column (save all that space for useful information), instead use a shift key modifier so that when clicking an entry its selection state is toggled on/off (grey backing fill of the entry row). When hovering over (or right clicking) a multi selected entry, display a new palette with just the features that function on a multiple selection. "Erase" being the obvious multiple selection command asked for in the past; the other useful multiple selection function would be drag and drop for copying a batch of Journal entries to and from external media (i.e. teacher comes back from the city with a USB stick full of downloaded ebooks). >> - Better Anything toolbar filter palette (use a grid layout to >> minimise >> scrolling) > > Yeah, that will be great. I think Walter already submitted a patch to > move the file types up. Yea, saw the patch from Walter, that alone should help even if we stall on doing more. I have a mock-up I was experimenting with grid layouts, still tinkering, and I can't think of a good 'filter' icon for the replacement button (a common one seems to be a funnel shape) :-) The Journal filters for 'Anything', 'Anytime', the proposed 'Anyone', and my below 'Tag' filters can all become toolbar icons (not text). This saves a heap of toolbar space, and allows room for a couple more buttons on the far right for 'Grid' and current 'List' view. >> - Perhaps a Tag toolbar filter palette (could be a mini tag cloud) > > Could you draw a quick napkin mockup to illustrate that? Sure, but don't think I'll have anything in time for the dev meeting.
