I was using Lightroom the other day at an event and part of my workflow involved highlighting a set of pictures and then adding them all to the Quick Collection by hitting 'B'. The problem I experienced was the inconsistency: sometimes that would add ALL the pictures to the Quick Collection, other times only the picture currently being viewed/highlighted (even though many pictures are selected).

So the question is, when does it apply the Quick Collection flag to ALL the selected pictures, and when does it only apply to the currently viewed picture among the selected ones?

I noticed this same issue with a few other hotkeys (when multiple photos are selected) and imagine that understanding how Lightroom chooses what action to take would help out a lot!

Thanks!

Many (I'm not sure all of which) bulk actions only apply when you are in grid view.
