Re: Selecting more than one Used Bitmap or Used Colour at a time in the Name Gallery
I'm not ignoring you at all HD.
The OP posted:
I don't know if this has been asked before but is there a way to select more than one of the round circles that turn red when you select them in the Name Gallery?
I frequently need to select dozens of colours in files I receive to get at the pertinent bit of information in a file.
Only being able to select one colour at a time is frankly painful.
I have tried all the normal windows tricks of Shift, Control and Alt, but I can only ever select one at a time.
I stated that using Ctrl + Select allows you to select as many colours in the name gallery as you wish, not just one.
There may be some misunderstanding of the OP's aims in his first post. He confirms in later posts that he seems to want to select colours in the Name Gallery similar to how you can do a similar exercise in The Page & Layer Gallery i.e. select a layer and holding down shift, select a layer 10 layers down and all the in between layers are selected.
I've never claimed this is possible. What I've questioned is the use of such a function in a name gallery that has no structure other than to list arbitrary names in numerical order that Xara assigns (Unnamed colour 234 etc.)
For such a feature to be useful you would need to be able to list the colour name gallery by hue and Shift select between similar hues and change all the fills to a single hue.
