Generating multiple UUIDs at once (using multi selection) create duplicate UUIDs

Open goforgold opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

For example, if i select all occurrences of uuid using Ctrl + D and then try to create multiple UUIDs at once, all uuid instances are replaced with single value. It doesn't generate unique instance for each occurrence.

Hi goforgold, this was intentional. However, your suggestion could be implemented as a settings feature next time. Thanks.

I certainly would vote for such an option: to generate an uuid wherever the cursors are, otherwise we're losing the convenience of the multiple-cursors. I hope this makes it into the next update!

The default configuration should already generate a new uuid for each selection. The command accepts a single boolean parameter that can be set to true, which will insert the same uuid in all locations.
