Highlighting Objects

You can highlight one or more objects in the view panel without selecting them.

To highlight one object or a non-contiguous group of objects:

  1. Click in the row of each object while holding down the <Ctrl> key.

To highlight a contiguous group of objects:

  1. Click the first object in the group while holding down the <Shift> key or the <Ctrl> key.
  2. Click the last object in the group while holding down the <Shift> key.
To remove the highlighting, use one of the following techniques:

    • Click anywhere in the view panel outside the highlighted group of objects.

      If you click an object in this situation, the selection state of the object does not change.

    • Right-click the highlighted group and select Remove Highlight from the pop-up menu.
  2. To select the highlighted items, click any one of them.
