Sometimes you want to be able to easily edit multiple pins at the same time (e.g. position or size) without double-clicking every single one.
One option to simplify batch editing would be a table based editing UI.
(Sorry for the bad mockup…)
On top of that, maybe we could add functionality to edit multiple cells at once. But even if it’s just simple to navigate and copy/paste in that table, it would simplify editing some footprints/symbols a lot.
Filter options could be added as well (e.g. search name by regex, or filter by shape, etc).
Perfect will be for mass/batch edit, of the same attributes for all parts in used/selected libraries…
Of course, also for PCB and schematic editor also (batch edit of the same attributes).
I was also looking for a mass editing feature, but was thinking more in the lines of selecting multiple elements in schematic editor / board editor, open up the properties view (via e.g. double click), and then make common changes that should apply to all the elements. Currently, when I bring up the properties widget and make a change, it only applies to one element, not all the selected ones
