SELECTING CONTROLS

When you first create a control, the designer selects it. The designer indicates that the control is selected by surrounding it with light gray boxes. In Figure 4-1, the button on the lower right is selected.

To select a control on the designer later, simply click it. You can also click and drag to select a group of controls. As you drag the mouse, the designer displays a rectangle so you can tell which controls will be selected. When you release the mouse button, all of the controls that overlap the rectangle at least partly are selected.

When you select a group of controls, the designer surrounds them with light gray boxes and a light blue border.

After you have selected some controls, you can Shift+Click to add new controls to the selection or Ctrl+Click to toggle a control’s membership in the selection. You can also Shift+Click-and-drag or Ctrl+Click-and-drag to add or toggle groups of controls from the selection.


NOTE
You can quickly deselect all controls by pressing the Esc key.
