Description

Please add a multi-selection feature (such as checkboxes) to the GCode browser tab to allow users to select and delete multiple uploaded models/files at the same time.

Motivation

When making quick iterative adjustments to slicer settings, or realizing a setting was forgotten right after sending a print, the file browser quickly becomes cluttered with multiple, nearly identical iterations of the same file. Currently, deleting these redundant or incorrect files one by one is tedious. A bulk-delete option would save time and make it much easier to keep the printer's storage organized.

Proposed Implementation

  • Introduce a toggleable checkbox next to or overlaid on each file in the GCode browser UI.
  • Add a "Select All" checkbox at the top of the file view.
  • Once you click a single Check Box switch to "Multi Check box mode" so you can click anywhere on the model cards to select it aswell, which makes it easier to select multiple models
  • Add a "Delete Selected" button that appears or becomes active when at least one file is selected.
  • Once clicked prompt the user with a single confirmation dialog ("Are you sure you want to delete X selected files?").

Implemented: checkbox on every file card, click anywhere on a card to toggle it once in select mode, Select All (respects your current search/filter), and Delete Selected with one confirmation dialog. Will be in the next nightly build.
