Add Multi-Select Controls for Export Queue (Skip/Remove Multiple Jobs)

RE Export Queue UI

Dear Topaz Labs Team,

I am a frequent user of your AI software, specifically Topaz Video AI, and am consistently impressed with the power and quality of the results it delivers. I’m writing today to suggest a user interface feature that I believe would significantly improve workflow efficiency within Video AI.

My request is for the ability to multi-select jobs within the export queue to perform batch actions, specifically to “skip” or “remove” them.

Currently, when managing a large queue in Video AI, if I decide to skip several processing jobs, I have to locate each one individually and click the “skip” button. For large batches, this process can be quite tedious and time-consuming.

I propose implementing standard multi-select functionality (Windows examples), such as:

  • Ctrl+Click (or Cmd+Click) to select multiple, non-sequential jobs.

  • Shift+Click to select a range of jobs. or Ctrl-A

Once multiple items are selected, a user could then right-click or use a single button to “Skip Selected” or “Remove Selected” jobs from the queue all at once.

This would be a major quality-of-life improvement for users who process large batches of files, making queue management much faster and more intuitive.

Thank you for your time and for developing such fantastic software. I hope you will consider this suggestion for a future update.

Sincerely,

me

I’d like to be able to pause/resume the entire queue in one click.
E.g. if I have 20 jobs queued up, and I discover I need to use the GPU for something else briefly, at the moment I need to pause every job individually in the export queue. Having a global pause/resume control would be very useful.

also sorting the que, changing the order would be useful. Would be nice to have but other things are more important like fixing the bugs and a pause/resume function for Starlight

I’ve been writing this setting for months, but the developers haven’t added it. It’s a button that could have been added very easily.
