Description Frederik Himpe 2008-06-21 18:22:46 UTC 
Version:           4.0.83 (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

In the picture frame settings, choose Slideshow and click on Add Folder. In the dialog that appears, I can only select one directory. It would be handy to be able to select multiple directories at once using the Ctrl and Shift keys, in order not to have to go through the Add Directory procedure multiple times.
Comment 1 Anne-Marie Mahfouf 2008-10-09 10:41:56 UTC 
The way it is done now does not allow it. Add directory calls a KDirSelectDialog which I think can only open 1 directory.
Please submit a mockup config dialog for an alternative to Add folder and Remove folder: what widget should Add folder(s) use? 

Please also note that this is not a Picture Frame only wish as the Desktop configure dialog also has a slideshow with the same way to select dirs.

Thanks in advance.
