Selecting Multiple Elements You will often need to select multiple regions, events, or other elements, in order to move, process, or copy them, for example. To select or deselect all elements in a window Do one of the following: µ Choose Edit > Select All (or use the corresponding key command, default assignment: Command-A). µ Choose Edit > Deselect All (or use the corresponding key command, default assignment: Shift-Command-A). Note: When a marquee selection is active, using this key command deselects all current selections, including the marquee selection. To select several consecutive elements in a window µ Click the background and drag over them. All elements touched, or enclosed, by the selection rectangle (shaded area) are selected. To select several noncontiguous elements in a window µ Shift-click them, one-by-one. As subsequent elements are selected, the previous selections are retained. Making Horizontal Selections Horizontal selections can be made in a number of editing windows, allowing you to quickly select all elements that are horizontally aligned on a lane. Note: When a marquee selection is active, using this key command extends the marquee selection-over all tracks within a marquee selection-to the project end point. To select all regions on a track in the Arrange area Do one of the following: µ Click the track name in the track list. µ Choose Edit > Select All Following of Same Track (or use the corresponding key command). All regions following (after) the selected region are selected. 206 Chapter 8 Basic Operations
