Add Shift and Ctrl select to Model Browser

When I have multiple connectors in my model I would like to be able to Shift or Ctrl select these connectors and add (drag 'n drop) them to the analysis. Now you can only select one connector at a time and add it to the analysis. With 36 connectors in total this can be time consuming.

This whish also applies to Contraints, Loads, Contacts, etc.

You can shift select items under the model node, RMB and choose copy then RMB on FE Model and paste them in the analysis.  This will move all similar items at once.

 

Let us know if this is not working for you.

Hi Andrew,

 

 

I am unable to do a Shift select.
The weird thing is that when I select the first item, hold the Shift key and use the Arrow Down key, RMB and choose copy then RMB on FE Model and paste them in the analysis. It works!

 

Ctrl select items under the model node, RMB and choose copy then RMB on FE Model and paste them in the analysis also works.

 

Could it be Windows 8.1 releated? I happens in Nastran In-CAD 2015 and 2016.

I do apologize.  That was a typo on my side.  Ctrl key is the correct key.  I will change this to under review to add the functionality of the shift key.
