Use Command-select and drag-select together
digitol: whatever, dude. Seems like it's a favorite pastime for some clown to post "this has been in Mac OS since [whenever]". It's not too much trouble for you to skip the hint if you don't like it. What I can't understand is why you clowns complain about your precious time being wasted by obvious hints, yet you gladly spend time posting a complaint about it.
An Applescript to select multiple noncontiguous items
I think I'll write an Applescript to select multiple noncontiguous items...
Now just copy and paste this into Script Editor, save it as an application, then presto! You can select multiple items in the Finder, then run this script! Of course you'll have to modify it to perform your desired action... your mileage may vary! I'm new to AppleScript so bug fixes etc welcome!
[thornrag adds: the script of course doesn't actually do anything, but you could change some things to make them different. Also, it only works in the Finder, but you could spend a few hours making one for each of your applications. This technique wasn't covered in any of Apple's documentation, so sure, why not post it.] |
