I  can’t get this to work either  If I:

•  create two adjacent text notes on the same page of a pdf opened in Skim 

•  select one note

•  press and hold shift

• select the other note with shift still held down

all that happens is that the 2nd note is selected and the first de-selected!

This is with Skim 1.6.21 on a MacBook Pro running High Sierra 10.13.6
