We are trying to track carvings on trees in the forest because there has been a huge escalation of this problem and it is killing trees. One requirement I have is to be able find similar carving photos in the database from different tree locations and then drill down to the details of each report. I plan to create a Gallery view so users can find carvings that look the same. To filter these out it would be great if we could tap and pick all photos that look the same in Gallery view. All photos picked would then be subsetted into a List view to see report details.
I donโt see any documentation that would support this. I think it would be a great feature for sorting pictures that canโt be defined by keywords.
Thanks

Solved! Go to Solution.
I donโt think this documentation addressed my question. Iโd like to use Gallery view so users to scan pics, chose all the ones that look the same, then display the corresponding subset of reports via List view or map view.
Sorry but I canโt follow what you are after
Hereโs what I think youโre after: You want to display the images with a single view. The user would tap any number of images to select them. Upon completion, the user would visit a different view that would show only the selected images in a more-compact report form.
All images in a single view: gallery view.
Tap images to select them: either (1) multi-select (a/k/a bulk select) and apply action, or (2) configure a Row Selected event action for the view.
Bulk select is exactly what Iโm looking for! Thanks!

I spoke too fast. I spent many hours trying to get bulk select to work. Finally I discovered what is not in the documentation: The underlying table must have Deletes Allowed in order to do a bulk select. But I donโt want deletes allowed in the table. Iโll only use an action to go to a different view of items selected, not to delete.
Bob
Is there a way to use bulk select without setting the underlying table to Deletes Allowed?

If it wonโt let you, Iโm not aware of a work-around.
The work around that Iโm familiar with is to add a virtual column named editable. And then add that to each columnโs editable if. And then somehow get rid of the floating edit button in the views.
Seems like a lot of work!
Is there a simpler way?
