select 2+ boxes inside a drawing canvas

[Guest]

Hello,

I would like to select more than 2 boxes that are drawn inside a drawing
canvas.
Is this somehow possible?

Thanks in advance,

Click the first one. Hold CTRL. Click the second.

Thanks for your reply Cindy.

The Ctrl key doesnt seem to work for me. I did find something interesting.
If I want to select 3 ordinary (nothing edited in the format text box)
boxes, I can do this using the SHIFT key. However if I use "no fill" settings
in the "format text box" under "colors and lines" it is no longer possible to
select 3 or more boxes.

Be very careful to click on the borders of the boxes, and it should work?
