i agree that it’s probably not a good thing to have a batch add for identifications, but i think it would be useful to effectively allow the creation of macros – collections of actions – that could be applied with keyboard shortcuts.
so for example, if you’re identifying species A (a flowering plant), you could assign the following shortcuts these actions:
- 1 = identify as A + annotate as flowering
- 2 = identify as B (a lookalike species) + comment with note on how to distinguish between A and B
- 3 = identify as C (parent of A) + comment with note on lack of evidence in photos to identify to species.
this way, you could go through a set of observations one by one and still take appropriate action on each observation relatively easily.
