Enable render button on multiple objects at once

Hi comunity! I converted my particles into mesh and I got all of them with unselected render button in outliner. So my question is: is it possible to turn on the render button on all meshes at once?

    Hi Kornei, I don't think so. What you can do, is join them together (CTRL J), or put your mouse over the render icon of 'Icosphere.001' and keeping your mouse button pressed, slide it down vertically untill you reached the 'end'. 

    Otherwise, you could write a small Python Script to handle cases like this...

    Honestly, I've been in situations like this many times and haven't found an easy way to deal with this, but maybe there is a better way to do this. I'd be happy to hear about it!

    There is another way as well, if you really want all the meshes to have an icon turned on. Instead of clicking on individual meshes, you can hold down SHIFT and left-click on the render icon for the whole Collection itself (firefly_particles in your case). That will first turn off everything, then you left-click again while still holding down SHIFT. Now everything just got enabled for that entire collection.

    thebergh Oh my God!!!!!! You saved my time! Thank you so much! I have like 500 meshes in scene with render button turned off and for the first time I did 500 clicks to enabled it 😂
