Select Multiple Objects
At the Select Objects prompt, you can select many objects at the same time.
Specify a Rectangular Selection Area
Specify opposite corners to define a rectangular area. The background inside
the area changes color and becomes transparent. The direction that you drag
your cursor from the first point to the opposite corner determines which
objects are selected.
Window selection. Drag your cursor from left to right to select only
objects that are entirely enclosed by the rectangular area.
Crossing selection. Drag your cursor from right to left to select objects
that the rectangular window encloses or crosses.
With a window selection, usually the entire object must be contained in the
rectangular selection area. However, if an object with a noncontinuous (dashed)
linetype is only partially visible in the viewport and all the visible vectors of
the linetype can be enclosed within the selection window, the entire object
is selected.
