[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Another Reordering Question

[Custer, Mark]

Miloche,

That is some first-rate documentation! Thank you. I almost always forget how to select multiple adjacent records since I so rarely do that (and switching between CTRL and Shift is not so intuitive, and I always try to start with the Shift key).

I’m going to print out your email and post it near my computer right now.  I’ll probably print out a few for colleagues, too 😊

Thanks again,

Mark

VivianLea,

If you are using a version of ArchivesSpace that has the “Enable Reorder Mode” button, the ctrl+shift+click doesn’t work like it does in other windows programs.  Instead do the following to select multiple records:

Multiple records NOT adjacent:

  1.  In reorder mode, hold down <ctrl> key and click on the two columns of dots at the far left of the first record you want to move. This should highlight your selected title
  2.  Hold down the <ctrl> key and click on the two columns of dots at the far left of the second record you want to move. This should highlight your second selected title and provide a numeric designation of the order that the titles will be moved

  1.  Continue until you’ve selected all the title you want to move then drag them to the appropriate location

Multiple records that are adjacent:

  1.  In reorder mode, hold down <ctrl> key and click on the two columns of dots at the far left of the first record you want to move. This should highlight your selected title
  2.  Let go of the <ctrl> key
  3.  Hold down the <shift> key and click on the last record in the list you want to move.  This will highlight and enumerate all the records between the first and last record you selected

  1.  Drag the records to the appropriate location as usual

I believe the answer to my last post was “it was a pre-Thanksgiving mental fit.”  After posting I went back in and it had reappeared.

So the next question is, when reading the manual, it says that you can select multiple items by using the ctrl+click.  However, when I use that combination (or shift+click or alt+click, it justs open another browser tab with the same page.  Is this a bug that has been identified?  I’m in version 2.4.1 and we are self-hosting.

Many thanks!
VivianLea
