Hi @aberenguel, thank you very very much for all your issue reports and fixing or enhancing PRs!

About this feature, do you know the Ctrl+A then Space key could be used to check all items into those related items tabs? Do you think it is not straightforward and are proposing an easier way to achieve the same thing?

I known. But I it is boring to do it thousand times. In my case, I have 2K images. What I wanted was to select all chats with those images.

The key point is that @aberenguel proposal allows dealing with multiple items at once, while the current procedure (described by @lfcnassif) must be repeated for each item, right?!

Oh I got it now, it checks all related items to all highlighted items in the main table, right? Sorry I didn't see the code changes yet and there is no issue describing the proposal in detail.

That is it! The check is done for all highlighted items.
I used some shortcuts due to the previous use CTRL+R / ALT+R. But now the check functions are not bound to shortcuts anymore. I think the shortcuts (except CTRL+R / ALT+R) except could be removed.

@lfcnassif, do you think this PR should be included in the 4.2 release?
If that is the case, I can review it.
