Perform actions on jobs
Action 'Stop'
The stop action requests a current running job to stop. Jobs are considered running depending on their current status. Since the jobs list allows a multi-selection of jobs, the Stop dialog might display jobs in several states. Only jobs, which are considered in progress, are stoppable. All other jobs are also displayed in the Stop dialog in separate blinds, but won't be touched by this action. After confirming the Stop dialog, the jobs are requested to stop. One or more messages are displayed after the stop requests are processed.
