Multi-Edit

Most grids in NEXUS IC provide the user the ability to edit and delete multiple rows in a single action.

Selecting Multiple Rows

  1. To select a consecutive group of rows, click the first item, press and hold down the Shift key, and then click the last item.
  2. To select non-consecutive rows, press and hold down the Ctrl key, and then click each item that you want to select.

Sorting, Filtering and Grouping can be helpful in selecting the rows you want to work on.

Editing Multiple Rows

Once you have selected the rows that you want to edit, then click on the Edit toolbar button. This will launch the relevant edit dialog for the active table.

Fields that are unedited will retain their original values for all selected rows (even when the data differs from row to row).

Fields that are edited in this dialog are identified with an Undo (Undo) icon directly to the right hand side of the edited field.

Clicking on the Undo (Undo) icon will revert the data back to the original values.

Clicking on OK in the dialog will apply all changes to the edited fields for all selected rows.

Deleting Multiple Rows

Once you have selected the rows that you want to delete, then click on the Delete toolbar button. This will launch the Question dialog and ask you for confirmation that you want to delete all selected rows. Click on Delete to confirm, or Cancel.
