Summary0005523: Transformation of many/all objects of the pipeline at once
DescriptionA user has requested that we be able to do transformations on numerous objects in the pipeline browser at once, and that objects that are derived from a previous object keep the applied transformation.

Example:
* Open Can.exo. Apply.
* Clip. Apply.
* Highlight Can.exo in Pipeline Browser, Clip. Inside out. Apply.
* Highlight the first clip in the pipeline browser, Display, Transformation, Translate, Y, =1.0.
* Highlight the second clip in the pipeline browser, Display, Transformation, Translate, Y, =1.0.
- User wants to do this with only one sequence of commands. He/she may have hundreds of parts that require transformation.
* Highlight the last clip. Cut, Apply. Now, turn the eyeball back on for the last clip.
- Notice that the cut is not derived from the output of clip, but rather from the original data. User wants all derived objects to be from the input filter, not the original data.

This can be done by grouping multiple objects together and applying a transform to the group.

After talking about this with Utkarsh, we think a straightforward way to implement this would be with links. The transform is just a property on a representation SM object. If representation objects were available for linking, this could be done.

The problem here is that adding the links would be tricky. Thus, to make it a bit more user friendly, we propose being able to select multiple objects in the pipeline browser, right click them, and select a Links... menu option. This could bring up a link dialog box with only the SM objects relating to those selected pipeline objects.
