## Description

**As** a team member  
**I want to** (un)select all sub-projects from projects in the include projects modal   
**so that** I don't need to select manually all the sub-projects bellow one project. And also I assure all sub-projects created afterwards in this project will be automatically added.

**Acceptance criteria**

A checkbox appears on the action bar of the modal that enables select all the sub-projects from all parent project. This selection then will force that all the sub-projects bellow a parent project selected will be checked and not able to unselect.  
By default the current project will always be selected (and in the case of include all sub-projects selected also its sub-projects).

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:75%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30061/content"></div></figure>

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:75%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30062/content"></div></figure>

When the checkbox is unselected the user is able to chose manually which projects and sub-projects can be included.

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:75%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30060/content"></div></figure>

For user support reasons while hovering on top of an inactive checkmark (can't be unchecked) a tooltip will be displayed explaining why:

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:75%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30063/content"></div></figure>

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:75%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30064/content"></div></figure>

### Cases:

  - **Creation of a new sub-project:** when a new sub-project is created under a selected parent in the view, only in case of having the "Include all sub-projects" checkmark selected this sub-project will automatically also be selected.
  - **Administration "sub-project" setting:** when in the "Administration\>Work packages" the select all sub-projects setting is active by default the "Include all sub-projects" checkmark will be selected in the modal (the user will still able to uncheck it).
  - **Unmark "Include all sub-projects" after selecting some parents:** In case of selecting some parents while having the "Include all sub-projects" checkmark selected and then unselect it, all the sub-projects will come back to the previous selection status before the "Include all sub-projects" selection.

### Mobile:

For the mobile view the action bar will need to be divided in two lines:

<figure class="image op-uc-figure" style="width:50%;"><div class="op-uc-figure--content"><img class="op-uc-image" src="/api/v3/attachments/30065/content"></div></figure>

### Implementation notes

  - Backend:
      - Add new attribute to the query "subproject\_context: true/false" to model and API
      - Add migration, take over value of existing global subproject include into that new field
  - Frontend:
      - Link checkbox with the subproject\_context state
      - Only submit the "truly" selected projects
