Tips on setting the dominant control

You can set the dominant control in one of the following ways when selecting multiple controls:

  • SHIFT+CLICK: The dominant control is the first control you select by using SHIFT+CLICK.

  • CTRL+CLICK: The dominant control is the last control you select by using CTRL+CLICK.

  • Select Objects pointer on the Toolbox: The dominant control is nearest the mouse pointer when you begin drawing the rectangle over the controls that you want to select.

If you press CTRL+CLICK twice on a selected control, that control becomes the dominant control.
