Would love to be able to multi select items and change common property bindings, just like you can multi edit the properties themselves…

I have wished for that several times before. I just recently made changes on a window that has 24 buttons, 24 text boxes, and 24 labels. I wanted to change the colors to a different expression binding for each type. Instead of selecting 24 buttons at a time and doing one expression binding, it took 24 selections and expression bindings, or 72 for all three types. This would be a big time saver.

I’ve always wondered what the issue was implementing this.

Another +1 for this feature or an alternative way of accomplishing the same thing. I want to add the ability to programmatically change the color (or other property) of large groups of objects.
