Selecting objects
To select objects you can select them one by one or use specific features
to select several objects.
Selecting objects in the interfaces
In a dialog box or a side panel, you need to select several objects,
such as drawings, or components to delete them, for example. Use the Windows
features to do it.
To select all the objects of a list, use the key combination [Ctrl]
+ [a]. To select several objects in a list, use the [Shift]
key + select the first and the last object. You can also use the [Ctrl] key
+ select the objects one by one to create a selection.
Selecting objects in the graphical area
To select several objects, in the graphical area, you must use the [Ctrl] key + select the entities
one by one to create a selection. You can also use the mouse to draw a
rectangle around the entities to select them.
If you draw the rectangle from the left to the right, you select
the entities included in the rectangle (continuous line). If you draw
the rectangle from the right to the left, you select the entities whose
at least one point is included in the rectangle (dashed line). A specific
icon appears to illustrate the selection mode.
