Select Multiple Elements

There are two ways to select multiple Elements in Camunda Modeler: using the Shift key or using the Lasso Tool.

Using the Shift Key

When you need to select multiple Elements that are not adjacent to each other,

1. Hold down the Shift key while clicking the Elements you wish to multi-select.
2. If you select an Element in error, click on it while holding down the Shift key to de-select an Element.
