Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

When I use the Grid Outage feature, I often want to model a grid outage in all timesteps. To modify the grid outage array to be "1" in every time step, I have to use an external spreadsheet tool and then copy/paste the values. Adding options for users to automatically set all time steps to "1" (or back to "0") would be nice.

Describe the solution you'd like

Something like this:

Or dedicated buttons for "0" and "1", as those are the only valid options.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Copying the default "0" values to a spreadsheet, changing them to "1", copying from the spreadsheet, and pasting back into SAM.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points; start by locating the Grid Outage editor and the array it changes. Confirm how users currently edit timestep values, then define completion as setting every timestep to 0 or 1 from the SAM UI while preserving existing outage behavior.
