Unlike a continuous selection of graphic objects, this selection method allows the user to select only some graphic objects independently on their position in the picture. the method is shown in the figure above. There are selected only the red squares. Take notice of the red square, which has been selected as the last - the square placed in the corner right bottom. The graphic object is active - you can change its parameters without any change of the other graphic objects. Clicking on other graphic object within the selection will activate the graphic object.
You can carry out various editing operations for the whole selection of graphic objects. An graphic object added into the selection can be unselected as follows.
To unselect a selected graphic object (selection) click anywhere on the picture except the selected graphic object (selection) or a button in the Drawing toolbar.
