> Similarly, when modifying properties (even on a single file), its quite likely you would want to make the same property
modification in all configurations. This is not possible.
Yes, it is. Select "All Configurations" from drop-down combo box.
So to be clear, you can modifiy properties on a single file across multiple configurations, but you cannot modify properties on multiple files on *any* configurations, single or multiple.

I think we are talking about different things. Lets's say I have 4 files in my project:
- a.cc
- b.cc
- c.cc
- d.cc
Let's say I want to change the state of "exclude from code assistance" for a.cc and b.cc. If I select both in the "projects" pane, then right click on the selection, the "properties" menu item is disabled. The same thing would be true for any other property specific to files: tool, command line, additional dependencies, includes, defines, etc.
The "all configurations" you refer to works only for all files in all configurations, not for some files. You see the distinction?
... and the result is that changing one property on N files requires N dialog sessions. A laborious thing. Too late for 7.0, so bumped it to 7.3. And still an inconvenience. Please confirm the last detailed description above on how you can't apply properties to multiple files or configurations. *** Bug 168755 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 249286 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is there any chance this feature will be implemented?
