    When I download only one task it really looks good (I can get entire history of task as PDF) and all attachements as separete files. Why Can't you do it with batch download form many tasks? Still waiting

    Many projects use discussions because you cant do anything with markups. Being able to download from a task or discussion is essential either this or make the markups downloadable or printable on batch

    I agree with Joe Findlay, Download all attachments from a Task or discussion should be available.

    I have logged this suggestion onto the relevant boards V4P utilise to review and agree for development. My fear is it will get ignored and become a significant problem. We need Tasks on V4P to have at the bottom some sort of 'Download All Attachments' button as they do within Notification Transmittals. This is very important seeing as we use Tasks of varying types with multiple contributors - many MANY of these tasks will contain documentation which will ultimately form part of the 'H&S File or project end 'Handover pack'. Therefir having to trawl hundreds of Tasks to then trawl up to 10 contribution per task to get relevant signed documentation or attachments would be 1000's upon 100's of man hours onto an already taxing task of compiling a handback pack on a project. This needs looked at ASAP.

    Was just about to raise this same point. this is essential now - a batch download button. Especially when wrapping up H&S Files in Construction Industry. Has there been any feedback to this ? This needs developed ASAP.
