Selecting multiple objects on SSTab

Hello,

I am re-designing a form which contains SSTab. I need to select multiple objects located on the SSTab's tabs. I can't drag the mouse around the objects to select them, because the objects' background is the SSTab itself, so draging the mouse moves the SSTab and doesn't select the objects inside it. Is there another way to select multiple objects? (besides holding down Ctrl and clicking - believe me, there are *alot* of objects...)

Thanks,
Yael
 
put the objects in a frame and move the frame?

but even here u have to use CTRL the first time. but then after that it becomes easy.

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
 
Just mark the form before you hold down the Ctrl Key and catch the controls dragging the mouse. Think you marked the SSTab and tried then to select the controls.

Hope this helps
Andreas
