๐ ๏ธ Problem
By default, SiteMark only allows square (box) selections, which can be limiting when trying to select components that arenโt perfectly aligned within a square area.
โ Solution: Use Shift-Drag and Multi-Select
Follow these steps to make more precise selections:
1. Enable Freeform Selection View
Hold down
Shift
on your keyboard.Click and drag the map to rotate it to a more convenient orientation.
This lets you better align the map view with the components you want to select.
2. Use Multi-Select to Pick Specific Components
Once the map is rotated:
Hold down
Option
(on Mac) orAlt
(on Windows).Click and drag to select multiple components in the newly aligned view.
3. Confirm Your Selection
All intended components should now be perfectly selected, even if they don't align neatly within a square.
๐ก Tips
Use this method when components are placed diagonally or irregularly on the map.
Rotating the view can help eliminate the frustration of missing key items during selection.
