Selecting several objects
Xara LX lets you select multiple objects. You can then, for example, move them all in one operation.
To select several objects
1. Choose the Selector Tool (see Tips).
2. Either:
drag to form a rectangle that encloses all the required objects. (This is often called "marquee-selection".) When you release the mouse button all the objects entirely contained within the rectangle will be selected. (See Tips.)
or click on the first object you wish to select and Shift-click on each subsequent object to swap it from not being selected to being selected.
Tips
Shift-clicking swaps the object under the mouse pointer between selected and not selected.
Marquee-selection: if you drag on an object this moves the object. To force drag-select rather than move, hold down Shift as you drag.
When creating animations: to select objects in multiple frames, click All Visible and All Editable in the Frame Gallery. See Frame Gallery for details.
When selecting navigation bars and rollovers we recommend using the Button & NavBar Tool. See Selecting navigation bar objects.
