Selecting objects

Selecting by clicking
After activating the selection mode, you have the following options:
● if you single click, all objects (structure elements) that were selected up to now are
deselected.
● You can select RUPs, ROPs, RPHs, SUBs, library references and transitions by simply
clicking on them with the left mouse button.
● Select sequences, branches and loops not by clicking a step or a transition but on the line
between the step and transition (to select a sequence), on the upper or lower horizontal
line (to select a simultaneous or alternative branch) or on the upper or lower horizontal line
of the return path (to select a loop).
● Select an open ROP by selecting the initial step, the final step or the sequence containing
the initial or final step.
● When you make a selection, other selected objects are deselected.
Selecting with a lasso
To open a lasso, drag the mouse while holding down the left mouse button. All the elements
completely enclosed in the lasso frame are selected when you release the mouse button.
Previously selected elements are deselected if they are outside the lasso frame.
Selecting further objects
If you want to select multiple objects then press the control key at the same time you click the
mouse. The element you have clicked is selected without deselecting previously selected
elements.
Deselecting
If you have selected an object by mistake then keep the control key depressed and click again
to undo the selection.
