How to select multiple objects in word full#

Sally, you've suggested that there is no simple solution because of how you've changed the graphics/art features. The time having to select objects one at a time with the control key is a useless waste of time. I just recently upgraded to 2010 and I wish I hadn't.

How to select multiple objects in word full#

It when I read that this has been a known issue since Word 2010 Beta in Dec 2009 and continues to be an issue now with the full release, almost a year later. Not being able to select a bunch of objects at the same time is a great limitation. I agree with the others - this is ridiculous that Microsoft would make this tool available but remove its ability to do anything useful. I sincerely hope the information above can help. You might ask how this is different than selecting shapes without turning on 'select objects' the answer to that would be to allow you to select shapes that are 'behind' text, or more easily select rotated shapes, etc. You can select multiple shapes holding down the CTRL or SHIFT key while clicking shapes. That said, the 'select object' tool that exists in Word 2010 should allow you to select individual shapes. We upgrading our graphics/art features the way the shapes/objects need to be selected is different than how 'old' graphics/art is selectable in Word 2007. It's not as simple as using the same feature that existed in the last version since The work needed to make the object selection work as it did in Word 2007 was out of scope for this release.
