You can select multiple objects on your Opus page as well as multiple objects in a file list box.
Click on the first object you want to select. A bounding box will surround the object.
Hold down the Shift key and click on all of the objects you want in your selection. These objects are the secondary objects.
The last object selected is the primary object the rest of the objects are the secondary objects.
Notice that the secondary objects each have a bounding box but it is a grey thinner border than the standard bounding box that the primary object uses.
Note:
When multiple objects are selected you can align and arrange the secondary objects to the same rotation, skew or shape as the primary object using the options in the Align menu.
Also, when multiple objects are selected, you can Right Mouse Click on one of the selected objects to open the right-click menu. From the menu, select the Properties option – this allows you to modify properties for all the objects selected. Please note, when the Properties dialog appears it will only display the tabs that can be changed for all of the selected objects.
Click on the first item in the list box.
If you want to select a consecutive range of items in the list box, hold down the Shift key and click on the last item in the list.
If you want to select non-consecutive items in the list box, hold down the Ctrl key and click on the objects you want to select.
Another method of selection objects on a page is to click and drag on an area of the page to create a rectangle – any object falling inside the bounds of the rectangle are selected. This is known as rubber band selection.
Note:
Any object that is inside or is partially within the rubber band selection is selected.
If you do not want to include objects that are partially selected on a page, hold down the Alt key as you click and drag to create the rubber band.
