@zevrix said in Improve bookmark management:

select the first desired bookmark > hold shift > select the last desired bookmark to select at once all bookmarks between the first and last selection (just like you select files in the Finder or bookmarks in other browsers).

Yeah, that way doesn't work. But, you can do a rectangle select of multiple bookmarks. Just left-click, hold and drag to select multiple bookmarks. You just have to start the drag outside of any bookmark zone. If you switch to list view so that all bookmarks are just listed by name with tiny icons, you can start the drag outside the left of the first bookmark you want and continue dragging to the last bookmark you want.

It should really work the way you suggest though, but it doesn't.

@leocg Thanks for the info!

Yes, I actually also figured it out by a sheer chance...

It looks like Opera's bookmark management needs some work:

-The Bookmarks menu opens the popup panel with very limited management abilities;

-However, the contextual Bookmark menu of the bookmarks bar opens the full Bookmarks page (the one that you mentioned)

-Then, if the user with a bit of luck discovers and understands Workspaces, they find out that there's a choice to always use the full page, in which case both Bookmarks menu and the contextual menu will open the full page.

In addition, the selection of multiple items is still implemented in a non-standard way: user has to first discover, then click a check mark at the far end of each bookmark. There's no way to select multiple items at once by selecting first and last item of the desired group while holding shift.

I'll submit a feature request for better bookmark management on an appropriate forum.

Thanks again for your help.
