Select multiple items by using mouse drag

You can now select multiple items (widgets, visualization, and explorations) that are on a book tab by using your mouse. Previously, you had to select each item separately.

Click anywhere on the canvas and drag your mouse around the items you want to select. All items within the lasso you created are now selected. With this improvement, you can easily group or move multiple items at the same time.

Selecting multiple items

You can select multiple items with a mouse drag in both Edit and consumption mode.

When you are in consumption mode, before you make your selection, enable the Show selected border in preview property for the items you want to select. This makes it easy to see the selected items when you lasso around them.
