Use Command-select and drag-select together
Just to clarify for the folks who are saying you can't do this drag-selection thing in Tiger: Yes, you can -- I use it all the time -- but the trick is to start your drag in the white space to the right of the filenames. You don't even need to hold the Command key down; just drag-select, then if you want to actually move or copy the files, click and drag again, except aim for a filename this time.

Oops -- more clarification needed!
Just realized that the previous poster was talking specifically about column view, which is something I never use, so I didn't notice that it doesn't work there. Or rather, only the drag-to-deselect doesn't work. Everything else is the same as in list view, it seems.

Ephraim: in 10.3.9, it doesn't work in List view, either. Any drag in white space selects the file that's on the same line in the list, no matter how far to the right or left I try my dragging.

Could you clarify what you're saying there? When you say, "Any drag in white space selects the file that's on the same line in the list, no matter how far to the right or left I try my dragging," did you mean to say Any drag moves the file on the same line? Because it's supposed to select it... it's just that it shouldn't start moving unless your click was aimed at the filename itself.
And when you say you "can't even start a drag in the white space to the right of the rightmost column," what do you mean by "can't start a drag"? Can't begin to select/highlight more than one item? Or can't begin to move/copy the items that are already selected? Just trying to get things straight here. :) |
