This “Stay on top”-Window is helpful to gain a quick overview of selected elements.
So you can select elements:
| • | Click in mode 'stop' on an element in a 2-D graphic window |
| • | For adding new elements keep pressed the shift- or control key |
| • | You can mark multiple elements by surrounding them with the mouse |
| • | In the menu 'Edit' there is the item 'Select all children' |
So you deselect the selection:
| • | Click twice (no double click!) anywhere in the white of a graphic window |
| • | Click on an already marked element whilst holding down the control key |
| • | Click on an element in this quick display |
So you open the edit mask:
| • | For several marked elements it is more favourable to press the enter button |
| • | Short right-click in the graphic window |
| • | A slightly longer right-click in the graphic window and then choose 'properties' |
| • | For many elements and in the element tree a double click is also possible. But in the graphic windows a double click has got a different meaning for some elements (for example digital display and stripes) |
If you often want to mark similar groups of elements, please read Machine | Editing the Machine | Groups.
Editing is not possible in this window.
Under Extras|Options you can adjust if the window shall be opened automatically at the start.
