Batch editing

Post by pchandler »

For example:
- Editing multiple appointments to add reminders to all of them
- Changing the title of multiple notes at once (eg. prepend a text like [new] to the title)
- Set due dates for multiple tasks at once
- Star multiple emails at once

At many times when using advanced search, this is something the user is likely to be doing to found items.

Currently EPIM's solution is to open each item editing window separately. A better way that other software do is to open 1 window with the fields different in each shown as "-" and the common fields shown as their true values. Editing a field would set it for all items.

Thank you for great software.
