Select an object

1. Select one or more objects:

   • Click the object with the TouchUp Object tool (Tools > Advanced Editing).

   • Click the object with the Select Object tool, or with the tool you used to create the object.

   • Right-click/Control-click the object and choose Select All from the context menu. If the Select Object tool is active and the document uses single page layout, all objects on the current page are selected. If the document is in any other page layout, all objects in the document are selected. If a tool on the Advanced Editing toolbar is active, all objects of that type in the document are selected.

   • Drag to create a rectangle around the desired objects. If the Select Object tool is active, all objects within the rectangle are selected. If an Advanced Editing tool is active, press Ctrl as you drag; all objects of the tool type within the rectangle are selected.

2. (Optional) Add one or more objects to the current selection:

   • Ctrl/Option-click an object.

   • Shift-click to add a range of objects. (The Select Object tool includes all objects when you Shift-click.) Using Shift selects all items that lie within the rectangular bounding box formed by all items in the selection (including the item that was just added).
