Description Daniel Moyne 2006-03-24 11:08:03 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE )

This bug old bug is like bug #65256 ; multiple selection of attachments for copy inside selected directory does not work : just the first attachment of the global selection is eventually copied into the chosen directory.
It was supposed to be resolved !

You haven't specified product, component, kde version or platform. Please 
specify them, or it's very hard for anyone to know what you're referring to
Comment 2 Thiago Macieira 2006-04-01 22:31:02 UTC 
Reopen when you can tell us what program you're talking about.
Comment 3 Daniel Moyne 2006-04-01 22:44:36 UTC 
I am talking about Kmail though I mailed this bug from KMail 1.9.1 bug report facility !

I received another [Bug 124174] which makes KMail crash when trying to open it !
Comment 4 Thiago Macieira 2006-04-02 00:48:14 UTC 
Ok. Now please explain your problem in detail. I can't understand what your bug is about.
Comment 5 Daniel Moyne 2006-04-02 12:33:06 UTC 
could not believe it ! When I receive a mail with multiple attachements (a collection of jpeg pictures for example) ; I may want to take some action on all of them or some of them like "display", "copy"... ; what I can do is select those to be processed upon with the mouse but when the selection is made and piped through "display", "copy"... only the first document is processed ; is this clear ?
Comment 6 Philip Rodrigues 2007-01-29 00:16:19 UTC 
How do you select the files? Are you selecting them in the MIME-tree viewer, or by selecting the icons that appear at the end of the message? Perhaps a screenshot would make this clearer
Comment 7 Philip Rodrigues 2007-06-04 00:03:24 UTC 
Feedback timeout, but please reopen if you have the answers to the questions in comment #6. Thanks!
Comment 8 Daniel Moyne 2007-07-19 11:28:58 UTC 
ok back with this again ; the selection is done with mouse on received message with a selection for example of many jpeg documents attached to the message that I want to open with gimp ; only one opens !
Comment 9 Thomas McGuire 2007-07-19 21:57:24 UTC 
It is actually not possible to select multiple attachments with the mouse.
What you are doing is selecting text, not attachments. Then you right-click on a link. The action then has nothing to do with the selection, only with the link you right-clicked on.
Therefore this is the expected behavior.
Comment 10 Daniel Moyne 2007-07-19 22:34:51 UTC 
Stange as apparently you have the same presentation as icons displayed in a directory ; can this be managed I mean the icons would then be positionned in a bottom section of the window like they would be belonging to an open directory ; I think a Windows mail tool does that but I am not sure ; when you prepare a message with attachments those attachments are listed in a bottom section of the window where they can be handled by the mouse.
Regards.
