9.9.1.1.1 Selection

Clicking an item selects that one object in the model. However, you can select multiple items:
  • To select contiguous items, click the first item you want to select, and then hold down the Shift key and click the last item you want to select. All items between the two are selected automatically.
  • To select items that are not contiguous. click the first item. Then hold down the Ctrl key and click each additional item you want to select.

If you selected multiple items and then change your mind about a selected item, you can deselect the item by holding down the Ctrl key and clicking the item.

Selections follow a symmetrical behavior: If you select a port, all macros attached to it are selected as well. Similarly, if you select a pin object, all corresponding macro objects are also selected.

For example, if you select a port, the macro is also shown as selected. However, the property page still points to the port. Pin selection follows the same behavior.
