Act on several tabs at once

You can select several rows in the panel and act on all of them at once.

You read through a dozen Fastmail search results in tabs, and four of them are done.

  1. In the panel, ⌘-click (Ctrl-click on Windows and Linux) each row you want. To take in every row between two, click the first, then Shift-click the last.
  2. Right-click one of the selected rows.
  3. Choose what to do with them: Close, Move to group, New group with selection, or Move to Workspace.
  • ⌘-clicking a selected row takes it out of the selection.
  • Selecting a row this way doesn’t show its page. The page on screen stays as it was.
  • You can drag the selected rows together. They land in their order where you drop them. A dragged selection never makes a group or a Split.
  • Close works only when every selected row is a tab. To remove a group, use Delete group… on it.
  • Closing several tabs offers Undo at the bottom of the panel for 8 seconds.
  • The other entries in the menu, such as Rename, are dimmed while several rows are selected.
  • From the keyboard, Shift+↑ and Shift+↓ add rows to the selection, and Ctrl+Space adds or removes the focused row. Escape clears the selection.
  • Clicking a row without ⌘ or Shift clears the selection.
