Description

It would be advantageous to add a keyboard shortcut for clearing the check boxes by column so that if using an interactive foot switch to check the boxes the you could do a long press at the end of you build to clear the boxes ready for the next board assembly. This would remove unnecessary movement to grab a mouse, select the column and then double click. then move back and prepare to place more parts, improving cycle time and manufacturing processes. Maybe a simple 'S' for sourced or 'P' for Placed, ect to clear the column.

Research direction

No file or test is named. Start by locating the interactive BOM code that handles column checkbox clearing and existing keyboard input, then determine how a shortcut or long press should select the column. Done means clearing the intended column without using the mouse while preserving normal checkbox interactions.
