You can make multiple selections in the layer manager, but you can't DO
anything with multiple selections (like move or remove them). We should
either not permit multiple selections (I think it is a flag for the tree
control) or fix it so that you can do something with multiple selections.
Just airing my opinion: it would be really, really, good if the second option would be possible, having the ability to do something (like delete) multiple selection. I would make working with layers that much easier.

I have the same wish. When working with many layers (e.g., after multi-
layer
import from GeoTIFF), this missing feature arises.

Comment(by annakrat):
Are we really talking about the same thing? For example when I select 2
layers and choose 'Set computational region from selected maps' this
command is executed (copied from command output):
I just compiled the latest build (revision 53062) (working on Ubuntu 12.04) and I can confirm it only works on one of the maps selected (as far as I know, it never has been possible to act on more then one layer?)

Comment(by cmbarton):
I tested this on GRASS 7 compiled yesterday. Removing, moving, and zooming
only affects one of the maps selected.
I was mostly concerned with the 'remove' function. But I just tried the 'Set computational region from selected maps' and it doesn't work for me either. It sets the region for the first map of the selected ones.
But I am running GRASS GIS 7 (on Ubuntu 12.04), so was this not changed for GRASS 7?
Cheers
Paulo

We are talking about the same thing. I put 3 maps in the layer manager,
select them all and click 'remove'. One is removed only. Click again and
it says that nothing is selected. Select 2 maps covering different
geographical areas and 'zoom to map'. It zooms to only one of the maps.
Create a group; select 3 maps and drag them to the group. Only one moves
to the group.
I am just getting around here in Arizona this morning and have to meet my
daughter for breakfast because it is a holiday. I'll test once I get
back. Thanks much.

I can confirm that this DOES work in GRASS 7 now. Thanks much. One caveat,
however. If you select a raster and a vector and zoom to map(s), it will
only zoom to EITHER the raster OR the vector, not to the combined raster
and vector.
