Multi-Select
Simio supports Multi-select in the Facility window, Dashboard window and External panel of the Definitions window. Multi-select
allows users to select multiple objects for the purpose of moving, copying and/or deleting them. C trl+click and drag in free space
will do a box select, meaning it will select all objects within the box. C trl+click on any object adds (or removes) it to the selection
set. While multiple objects are selected, they may be moved, copied or deleted.
Multi-select is also very useful for editing similar properties of objects within the above specified windows. You can select multiple
objects and the intersection of their set of properties will appear in the property grid. If the objects share values for a property,
the value will show up, otherwise the value will be blank. This feature is useful for editing multiple items, such as selecting multiple
conveyors and changing the desired speed, selecting multiple links and changing them to bidirectional or selecting several transfer
nodes and changing the transport logic to ride on a given vehicle.
