April Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 When you click on an object with the move tool, it suggests this at the bottom: 'xyz' selected. Drag to move selection. Click another object to select it. Click on an empty area to deselect selection. It would be fantastic if it instead said: 'xyz' selected. Drag to move selection. Click another object to select it. ⇧⌥+Click to select an additional object. Click on an empty area to deselect selection. It took me forever to discover that method of selecting multiple objects, and would have saved me a ton of time when I was first learning Affinity. Thanks so much!

April Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 (it would actually probably be nice if the chord was simpler too, like just ⌥+Click to select another object) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A_B_C Posted November 5, 2015 Share Posted November 5, 2015 Hey April, the standard way to add an object to an existing selection of objects is Shift (⇧) + Click … no need to hold down the Option (⌥) (Alt) key as well … :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Posted November 5, 2015 Author Share Posted November 5, 2015 Oh hey, you're totally right. For some reason, I feel like that wasn't working before. My bad! So scratch my second comment, but it would still be nice to add a bit to the reminder text. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
