New Planner: Grid View doesn't allow multi-select/multi-edit of tasks

In the grid view (formerly "List" or "Liste" (German)) it is currently no longer possible to "multi-select$" task in order to do mass-Editing (e.g. for moving a lot of finished tasks to a separate "Finished-Bucket".
This is a major regression and really bad news for a "new" Planner.
It seems that the Teams-GUI of the planner is now the same as the web GUI.

Any other user struggling with this?

    Olaf Huber Yes, The lack of bulk adjustments is a major shortcoming of the new planner app and should be added ASAP. See also: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msteams/forum/all/update-multiple-planner-tasks-in-teams/5370faf6-b95e-4d5b-8bb6-bd78ef32c09f

      Thanks hanszel
      So good to hear I am not the only one. It is a pity that a lot of users, normally supposed to do their "official" job, have to invest a remarkable amount of their time typing and reporting bugs. But I guess this is what "distributed developement" is about... Companies should receive a subscription bonus for each bug reported by users...;-)
