Cannot select multiple messages in a sequence diagram

In sequence diagrams, deleting multiple messages is tedious because multiple messages cannot be selected by using a selection rectangle.
1) If the rectangle contains a single message, its object is also highlighted. So when multiple messages are selected, the corresponding objects are selected.
2) If the selection rectangle overlaps a single line of the combined fragments box, the entire box is selected.
I could same time if Studio used normal CTRL conventions. In other applications, holding down CTRL has two possible results.
1) If the item to be selected is not highlighted, then that item becomes highlighted and is added to the selection group. Studio does this.
2) If the item to be selected is already highlighted, then that item becomes non-highlighted and is removed from the selection group. Studio does not do this. So I cannot use a selection rectangle, then selectively use CTRL to remove unwanted items from the selection.
Can anyone suggest a way of selecting multiple messages?
As a side issue, does anyone know how to remove individual items from a selection?

Have you tried using the Shift key when selecting?It's the same problem. Selecting one or more messages also highlights the sending and receiving objects associated with the messages. Pressing DELETE at this point would also delete the objects.

Image Sequence...Cannot select multiple files for image sequence.

When I select Image Sequence in QT7 and navigate to the folder with the images, I am no longer able to select more then one image. Is the something that 10.6 has broken?
What am I missing?

If you only get the first file to import then I suspect the image files are not all sized correctly or the file names are not being recognized as "sequential".
I've done some tests to confirm this on my machine. File names with some using a _ (underscore) and others using a - (hyphen) import only the highlighted file. In another test I mixed in a single file sized just one pixel wider than all of the others and only the first file is recognized.

How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere?

How do you select multiple messages/conversations on SMS/MMS to forward or save to memory card on Samsung Stratosphere?
My screen is cracked and I need to replace my phone and I don't see a way of selecting multiple messages or even conversations one at a time to forward them to email or to save them to a memory card. I can delete thread but can't forward it or move it. Is there a setting somewhere that will move the storage location for messages to the memory card instead of internal?
If not, any suggestions on backup apps? I have heard of Txtract to back up SMS and MMS messages, and Titanium Backup to back up everything (SMS, MMS, apps, app data...). Anyone have any experience with those, or other suggestions?
Thanks!

SAPGUI JAVA 7.10 (OSX 10.5.1): cannot select multiple columns in ALV

Hi,
in sapgui java 7.10 (on mac osx 10.5.1) I cannot select multiple columns in ALV reports.
I can do it only in some transactions (like SE16). But on all our custom reports (REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY) in does not work.
Any hint?
Many thanks,
Lorenzo

Hi Lorenzo,
did you double check if selecting multiple columns works with SAP GUI for Windows in the same report?
If yes, I suggest to file a bug report so we can do a remote logon to run your custom report.
If not it might be because of REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY itself or your parameters calling REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY.
Best regards
Rolf-Martin

TS3899 Just updated to 7.0.6. Cannot Select multiple emails to move/delete.

Just updated to 7.06. Cannot Select multiple emails to move/delete. I select Edit in any mailbox, trash or sent, then select one email to delete/move, after a few seconds, the email automatically 'unselects' the move and delete buttons deactivate, but the top status bar still has '1 selected'.
If i try to select multiple emails I get to the 3rd or 4th one and then they all auto unselect.
My Ipad without the update works fine. My daughters iphone 5 has the same issue and she just updated.

I have no problem selecting multiple emails on iOS 7.0.6
Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.

I cannot select multiple objects.

I cannot select multiple objects within the file I'm currently working on. This has worked in the past. Have I inadvertently changed a setting?

Are you trying to select via Shift+click? If yes, try selecting items in Layers Panel and from the fly-out menu, choose Select items and see if it works.

Dragging to select multiple messages in Mail 6.0 and OS 10.8

Unable to select multiple messages in Mail.

Hi,
I can't select multiple messages in Mail app. After selecting few, all of them automatically deselects. This is really annoying. I'm on 6.1.2 iP5, and this is happening from the begining. Never happened before on my iP4. The other problem with mail app is that it keeps opening my "first on the account list" e-mail account, and please don't tell me that this is normal since it never happened before. Sometimes when I try to open a random account I see a black screen
see an image below.
Please help me as this is driving me crazy.

Interesting interpretation of the OP's request.
I read the request as wanting to take one action that applied to many messages, rather than apply one rule many times.
For example, consider a rule that forwards the message to some other address. Selecting all messages and running the rule will generate multiple new messages - one per selected item.
that was my understanding of what the OP wanted. perhaps I'm wrong. let's wait for the OP to respond and clarify what he/she really wants.
Conversely, and how I interpreted the request, an AppleScript could collate all the selected messages and combine them into one new message - essentially running the 'forward' on many items at once.
I'll be interesting to see the OP's response to see which matches his requirements.

Attempt to drag a message and Mail instead selects multiple messages

I used to be able to quickly grab a message and drag it to a folder. Now I have to click and hold before the message is grabbed. If I try to do it quickly, Mail instead begins selecting the message I am trying to drag and continues autoscrolling and selecting all the messages below it.
I drag messages to folders far more often than I select multiple messages, so this is not a boost to my productivity. It breaks a pretty basic user interface convention too. I hope this change doesn't make its way into the Finder!
For the record: Overall I am VERY happy with Snow Leopard.

Hi Ernie,
Thanks for the reply. You're right (as was the original "helpful"-marked post) - dragging directly sideways does work to avoid changing the selection. However, I have a full vertical screen of message folders and my messages being dragged are almost always at the bottom (I don't use a preview pane), and I know for sure that I never had to drag sideways before dragging up before Snow Leopard.
The problem is even worse on Apple's 30" monitor, as you might imagine.
I simply need to be able to disable this undesired "multi-select mail items in the list with the mouse" functionality that (to my years of use) was never there in the past. I'm betting there is some preference setting I could put in, if only I knew what it was.
Thanks,
Doug

Shift-scroll not selecting multiple messages

I've got two questions, but I'll post them separately to keep the threads clean...
I just got a Curve 8330 (used to have an 8830 World Edition, with Sprint in case it matters) and I'm loving it so far. But for some reason, I can't click the SHIFT key and scroll to select multiple messages like I could on the other BB. I've tried about every combination I could think of: Left shift, right shift, alt, press and don't hold, press and hold, press both and hold, alt-shift and scroll. Nothing.
Is it a software problem?
Is there some weird "don't allow shift to be used for multiple selection" setting some place.
Oh... and yes, the Shift key works just fine for other uses.
Ideas?

Hi and welcome to the forums,
I have an Verizon 8330. You should be able to use either the right or left keys to press and scroll.
Not to be insulting, but to verify, the keys are located on the bottom row last key on each side of the keyboard.
They have an up arrow in silver along with an aA in each. You should be able to highlight the message to start, press either shift key, and scroll the trackball to the last selected item.
I was just verifying the procedure.
Has this not worked since you got it, or has it just started?
Please let me know,
Thanks

Possible to select multiple messages in Mail?

I'm in the process of switching to Mail and am setting up rules. I want to apply a rule to multiple messages at one time, instead of applying the rule to each individual message, one by one. I cannot find a way to Select All or otherwise apply a rule to a bunch of messages (that are already in my InBox) all at once. Can anyone help? Thank you!
