Selecting multiple tabs at once with CTRL + Click and Shift + Click, like web browsers

Post by JimmyD »

I would like to request the ability to select multiple tabs at once with CTRL + Click and Shift + Click, like web browsers, to be able to drag multiple tabs at once.

Thanks in advance.

Hello JimmyD,

While there are some similarities between the tabs in browsers and the tabs in our Editor (and other PDF viewing software), I am afraid that web pages are significantly simpler than PDF files, and selecting and manipulating several tabs at once in a browser will as such be easier than doing the same with PDF files, so I can not guarantee that this feature request will be approver, but I've made it, and will leave it up to the devs to decide on it:
#5792: FR: Selecting multiple tabs at once with CTRL + Click and Shift + Click, like web browsers
(Currently no other PDF software I am aware of offers such a feature.)

Kind regards,
Stefan

I think there is some misunderstanding.
My request is about multi-selecting PDFXEdit UI tabs to move between different PDFXEdit windows. This is independent from the PDF content within those tabs.

Understood Jimmy,

lets see what the devs have to say about this.

We do not have an ETA for delivery, it may not be something that the dev team leader feles is a priority, it may be simple, I am not privy to the details myself. At the end of the day, whether this gets delivered will be at the discretion of the Development Team leader.

I hope that helps.
Best regards
