Allow multiple selections for components in Search Task
Reply Quote
1. Click on the Search Task link
2. Select a system
3. Now try to Ctrl Select multiple components

Result: It only allows one at a time. I cant really see any reason for this as it doesnt need to update the page with anything. Systems on the other hand do require a change to the components list.

I think this would speed up creation of searches, esp with multiple systems selected as well.

I remember this was allowed to be done in IE once upon a time if you did it very quickly, in firefox it was imposible.

Cheers,
Damien

The reason that component refreshes the page is to display any related custom fields to that component.

I tested in IE & Firefox and was able to select multiples without a problem. Are you selecting "All" as well? If so it will clear your selection each time.

Ok, I can understand if you have custom fields then you want to refresh. Is it possible to detect if there are custom fields first?

Also I tried firefox again, even though I can select multiple items before the refresh..only one will be selected afterwards.

Ok, Let me stew on this one. I might replace the combo selects with a pop-up list of systems / components with check-boxes so you can select what you want then it refreshes on after you accept the selections. It might have to wait until the next major release though. Thanks for the suggestion.
