#4680 new Feature request

Resizable "Files currently being edited" dialog, change from modal

Description

When editing a lot of files sequentially, the list of currently-edited files becomes quite long (and as such, the scrollbars become tiny and impossible to grab).

The textarea showing the list of files is only three rows high; it seems to be an omission in the UI design. Suggestion: could the dialog be made resizable (and remember its sizing once resized?)

The dialog is also modal - does it need to be?

Some more suggestions:

  • When selecting items in the list, make it possible to select multiple items (Ctrl + click, Ctrl + A to select all etc) to delete the entire list at once (or, add "* All" buttons below the list, i.e. 'Upload All', 'Unedit All').
  • When selecting a single item from the list and hitting Unedit, the next item in the list is not automatically selected (requiring two mouseclicks and a move to select the next item then unedit it). Again, omission in UI design and decreases productivity.
  • Once the list is cleared, perhaps the dialog box should close itself automatically?
