== New toolbar ==
 +
 
 +
The current journal toolbar ran out of space for new options. The new toolbar provides the structure we require for adding these new GUI elements.
 +
 
 +
=== Filter and Sort sub-toolbar ===
 +
 
 +
The current toolbar will be completely moved to a new sub-toolbar. Since this sub-toolbar is not always visible we also add a new element to the journal GUI that pretends to display current [filters, sorting criterias, tags] at any time.
 +
 
 +
== Multiple files operations ==
 +
 
 +
* Add a checkbox column to every journal entry.
 +
* Display the edit sub-toolbar when more than one entry is selected.
 +
 
 +
=== Allowed Operations for multiple files ===
 +
 
 +
* Copy
 +
* Send to
 +
* Remove (this operation should display a warning before committing)
 +
 
 +
'''All of this operations should display a proper progress bar.'''
 +
 
 +
== Tags ==
 +
 
 +
In this work we propose to remove the current star icon and replace it by tags. We propose to add a new sub-toolbar to manage the creation and deletion of tags. These tags could be used by dragging tags and dropping them on the journal entry.
 +
 
 +
== Mockups ==
