Faster way to designate bedrooms

[Saro]

I've just built 100 bedrooms. Is there a way to designate them all as individual bedrooms rather than clicking zones, chose bedroom, drag over one, accept, repeat for each room?

press the multi button and select them all, if they are all seperated by a door they will all become seperate rooms

Click the button that says "Multi", drag across all the rooms, and it will turn every confined room with a bed in it into a bedroom.

click the "multi" box while you have the bedroom zone type selected and drag it over all your rooms. They need to be an enclosed cells with either walls or doors all along the outside to count but it'll make each cell a bedroom that will be automatically claimed by a homeless dorf.

Keep in mind that this "everyone gets their own room" policy can and will backfire sometimes, so if you see even one mention of "Urist McVictim was found dead, completely drained of blood!" it's time to stop and carefully scrutinize each and every dwarf in your fortress looking for anyone with a backstory that doesn't add up, or anyone who isn't drinking beer on the regular because they're going to be your guy. Hit up the Justice menu and let the hammerer deal with them, or use my personal favorite way of dealing with them... Confine them to their quarters by installing some chains, and then wall them in. If no one sees them leave or die, no one even gets upset.

...because it is when dwarves are all alone in their private quarters and there's no witnesses that vampires will strike.
