FLC - Copy/paste information from and to picklist multi selection

FLC - Copy/paste information from and to picklist multi selection

Hello,

 

Is it possible to add the possibility to do a copy/paste of the information contained in a multi picklist selection to another multi picklist selection containing the same information?

 

For example:

Picklist “A” containing all the active PLM users.

Picklist “B” containing all the active PLM users.

 

If in the picklist “A”, we select 2 users (“Bailly, Sylvain” and “Baba, Sysy” are moved to the right because they are selected as you can see below):

Picklist A.png

 

If I would like to add these 2 users in my picklist “B”, I need to find the users in the list (I know that we can start writing the beginning of the ‘Last Name’ to find it faster). I am wondering if it could be possible from the development point of view to add the functionality to copy the information from the picklist “A” and paste it in the picklist “B”.

 

Thank you,

Sylvain

Hey Sylvain. It's been a long time since we've chatted. I still watch the comments, but I'm not directly involved in development any longer (I prefer developing, I think. lol)  I agree it'd be very convenient to have this. I think (it's been awhile, and I'm being lazy and not reviewing my own code) but, based on your description, this is totally doable. It's just not a built-in function. We can do it (have to) in JS pretty easily with arrays but (based on my understanding of what you're asking) it would be great to get helper functions like this to reduce initial development time and code maintenance errors, so then we don't have to create or own functions. Not everyone is going to implement it the same, and that's kind of a problem, right? I can only imagine how many support tickets ADesk gets for simple scripting issues. But it's not simple for everyone. So, I'm on board with this. 🙂
