Number of Items in a Collection or Sub-Collection
I would like to count the number of items in a specific collection or sub-collection. But I am not able to find how to display this number.
After some experimentation, I just found out that selecting ALL items solves the problem. But there is NO menu-item "Select All" to select all items at once. Therefore, this operation becomes cumbersome on a larger collection (e.g. in a systematic review).
I have tried Right Click on Collection => Generate Report
But it does NOT provide the count.
Suggested New Function:
Right Click on Collection => Statistics (or Count)
Generate a summary or a count of the items in the collection.
Alternatively: Menu item "Select All"

I found it now also in the top Edit Menu. Unfortunately, I tried only right clicking on the collection, or on the table with the records and on an item: the menus that pop up for those situations did not have the "Select All" command.
But note that you can also just click on the collection and look at the count in the right-hand pane. You don't actually have to use Select All. (If you've already clicked on an item, you would have to deselect it or click to another collection and back.)
