### Box Selecting ID(s)

Another way to select features is to use the left mouse button to draw a "box" around the features. This is called "box-selecting". To do this:

1. Place the mouse pointer at one corner of where the box is to be drawn and hold down the left mouse button.

2. Next, drag the mouse pointer to the opposite corner of the "box." PC-DMIS will draw the box outline on the screen as the mouse is dragged.

3. When the "box" is satisfactory, release the left mouse button. PC-DMIS will highlight all the elements in the box and list them in the feature list box.

This option also allows you to modify the contents of the box as indicated in the list. To either add or delete a feature from the set, simply click on the feature to be changed (either in the Graphics Display window, or the dialog box's list of features).
