Hi, Regina

In Draw, Presentation, Shift key works.
In Writer, seems it does not support selecting multiple drawing
objects at
the same time.

Selecting multiple drawing objects with Shift+Click should work in
Writer as well. If it is not possible, then it is a bug. One known
problem is reported in https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118137
I can select multiple drawing objects, if no picture is present. If you
cannot do it when no picture is present, then please write a bug report.

Selecting multiple pictures in Writer is not implemented. Feature
request is https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=17860

Hmmm. Doesn't seem to work on frames either (OOo 3.2/ubuntu 10.04) but does work on shapes, text boxes and freeform lines, at least. Text boxes sometimes get handles shown their outline marked, but not always.

I seem to recall in 2.x (iirc) you could /never/ select more than one object in Writer. I notice the OP didn't give a version.

I'm tempted to wonder about the structure of the code, that treats displayed items so inconsistently. Better not though :-)
