[Bug 251887] New: difficult to select more than one unit

Anders Lund
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=251887

           Summary: difficult to select more than one unit
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.4.0
          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Time Line
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           1.4.0
OS:                Linux

Using the timeline, i find it very difficult to select more than one unit
(day/week/...), for the following reasons:

1. I am required to click a very small area for selecting additional units
(small square in the bottom) (This applies to selecting the first unit too).
Why not allow selection by clicking the full unit representation?

2. I can only select additional units by holding CTRL key, not by holding SHIFT
key. It would be nice to be able to select a row of units by holding SHIFT key,
similar to other list views. It would also be nice if I could drag a selection.

3. It is difficult to recognize the selection at all, because the "current"
marking of a unit is so dominant visually. Why not coloring the full unit
background with selection color?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Try using the timeline

Actual Results:  
it takes a lot of time to realize how to make a selection

Expected Results:  
it is easy to make a selection

OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.35-ARCH
Compiler: gcc

I'd say point 2 is fixed as well, not sure if we should really be able to move
a selection...?

point 2 means that it should be possible to click on monday, then hold SHIFT
and click friday, to make the range monday - friday selected - that is normal
behavior in various widgets supporting multiple selection, and also would be
very convenient.

Yes I know what point 2 means, I just fixed it :-)
I just don't understand this part:
" It would also be nice if I could drag a selection"

Wonderful that this have been implemented, big thanks!

The dragging concept would mean that dragging would work similar to shift:
press the left mouse button on monday, then drag to select more days or weekd
(by dragging vertically). I think it works like this in some calendar views,
for example the korganizer agenda and month views.
