Add multiple selection in map legend

[guy.duplaa@…]

In map legend,you can add a layer to a group by drag and drop. But, because QGIS runs so fast, you can drag easily all the layers you want and group them. I did it for 128 GeoTiff files representing 1.9 Go. For a reason i don't know, at a new opening all my groups desappeared. So i'm now suppose to drag and drop 128 times again in a new group. For the next version, will you permit a multiple selection in the map legend to group all files at once ?

Now, i know the reason of the bug. When you reopen a saved project, if one file is not at the same place, Qgis asks for finding it. Even if you say No, all the groups have already desapeared

For me, the group still exists. The missing layer does not get added to the group, however, even if you find it.

Can you try with latest version 0.8.1 preview2?

Remember to uninstall the old version first.

I will close this, please re-open if the problem persists.

With latest version 0.8.1 preview2, the group still exists like you said. So, because the project is in xml, i open the file xxx.qgs and i replace the new path for example with notepad ctrl + H and its OK (but a little heavy)

So, for the next version, will you permit a multiple selection in the map legend to group many files at once ? Thanks
