Eclipse shortcut to select multiple rows

richard_pietsch — Mon, 18 Feb 2019 16:57:35 GMT

Hi all,
I was wondering if there's a shortcut in Eclipse to allow multiple row selection e.g. in the attributes tab of a form, such as in Windows Explorer (press & hold CTRL while selecting the items)? New attributes can be added only at the end of the list, so I have to move each single of them by drag&drop.. could be much easier if I could select and move multiple items or a block.
Is there such an option? I already checked the shortcut list...

Regards

Hello Richard,

not that I know of. Sadly it's another thing that got axed moving from the MMC of 7.2 to eclipse for 8.0 it seems. In 7.2 this was definitly possible for "forms" attributes.

It should still be possible for job attributes, though.

Regards,

Steffi.

PS: Be wary of the use of the "DEL" key. My eclipse deletes not just the row that is highlighted, but the one after that, too. So right-click it is!
