"Select all" and "unselect all" buttons for multiple choice inputs

I’m using the multiple choice select input to let users specify a set of replicas to deploy. Usually users want all of them, or just one or two. Currently the UX is hostile, either I default to everything selected and users have to uncheck a dozen options if they want to deploy just one, or I default to none selected, and users have a bad time if they want to deploy everything.

Form controls like this usually have some JS-enhanced “select all” and “unselect all” buttons to help with this. Could you add them for multiple choice inputs in the Buildkite UI as well please?

Hey @danderson!

Thanks for the feedback! Definitely a great callout and would make things a lot easier where all/all but 1 etc can be used for input. I’ll pass that feedback on to the folks here so we can take a look.

Hi @danderson , I’m from the product team - and that is a great idea. If you do have a ton of options (I’ve seen some big lists!) it can be tiresome. We’ll look to add a select all dynamically in the form so that it makes it easier for people.

Cheers
Chris
