Hello,
Could you add a "column mode" edition ?
For example : I can't select only few rows of a column or a full column for a quick copy/paste
An other example, a "column mode edit", in a file I have many lines like that :
a
b
c
I select all the lines and copy them to my clipboard, i want be able to select a cell in heidisql paste my clipboard on it and the result will be this one :
previous :
id / name
1 / test1
2 / test2
3 / test3
after :
1 / a
2 / b
3 / c
This allow easy/quick edit of data in a column mode way.
Feature request : Column mode edition
I guess you know that HeidiSQL has a "Export grid rows" dialog? You could now deselect all unwanted columns so the grid only contains the columns you need for copying. Then, right click the grid and use "Export grid rows" to get what you want.
That dialog could also have such radio buttons:
( ) Selected column (name)
(*) All displayed columns
That dialog could also have such radio buttons:
( ) Selected column (name)
(*) All displayed columns
I said "shift+click" to select cell/column, not to add item or context menu. Its like "vertical column" edition in text editor.
It allow to easy select column AND edit them.
Let me show you that with picture :

Or select 10/20 cells like that :

And paste clipboard on this cells to all change them according to my previous post.
For example dbForge can allow all of these operations :)

Got that. Only I think dragging a rectangle selection does only work with full row selection in VirtualTree. Let me check that.
If that's not supported - what's wrong with extending the grid export dialog? As far as I understand you want to be able to copy column values from let's say 10 rows. That's doable if the dialog gets extended with such a "Selected column" radio button.

Not often, but when I need it, its very usefull :)
With this feature I can doing bulk edit 1000 rows very easily without any script.
Why can't you handle this feature without multi line editing feature ?
Cell B23 selected.
You detect the paste behavior on this cell, check if the paste is a multi line paste. Then, you can edit the B23 with the first line of the paste, then edit the B24 with the second line of the past, etc.
Maybe you can't detect the paste behavior ?
