Directly above the list of objects in a folder page you find the multi-selection toolbar. This toolbar lists icons of actions which can be applied to several selected objects. The names of the actions are shown as tooltips when you move the cursor over the action icons.
Figure 5: Multi-selection toolbar
Objects are selected by ticking their check boxes. and are shortcuts for selecting or de-selecting all objects within a folder. You may, e.g., transfer the selected objects
• to your clipboard via (or Edit Cut ), or
• to your trash via (or Edit Delete ).
Objects transferred from a workspace to your clipboard or trash are no longer visible to the other members of the workspace.
Some actions, e.g. rate , may only be applied to objects of specific types. A detailed introduction to BSCW actions is given in 3.3 Actions.
