Description

OS: Win11 x64
Build Version: 0.11.9-alpha
Regression: Not a regression

Repro Steps:

  1. Open VS Code -> Go to Azure Resources view -> Select multiple Resource Groups
  2. Right‑click on one of the selected Resource Groups
  3. Click View Properties

Expect:
When multiple resource groups are selected, the action scope should be clear and unambiguous.
Single-resource actions such as View Properties should be disabled or hidden or clearly indicate which resource group the action will apply to.

Actual:
The Properties view opens only for the resource group that was right-clicked (focused item).
Other selected resource groups are ignored, and no UI indication explains that the action applies only to the focused item.

Research direction

Start in the Azure Resources view and reproduce the multi-selection flow described in the issue. Trace the View Properties action from the right-clicked resource group and inspect how selection and focus are handled; done means the action's single-resource scope is unambiguous when multiple groups are selected.
