Object list (a dropdown list of all objects in the document, as described below)
* Not all versions of TextMaker have this feature.
Object list: At the very right of the object toolbar, a dropdown list with the names of
all objects existing in the current document is displayed. Open this list and when
you click on the name of an object, the corresponding object will be selected.
You can refer to the section on “Changing the names of objects” beginning on page
253 to learn why objects have names and how these names can be changed.
Selecting objects in Object mode
In Object mode you can select any type of object simply by clicking on it with the
mouse.
This is very useful, especially for objects with transparent fills (e.g. text frames). In
Edit mode, an object of this type can be selected only by aiming at its border and
then clicking. In Object mode, such an object can be selected simply by clicking
anywhere on it.
In Object mode you can also select multiple objects at once, provided they are
frames or drawings. To do this, draw a rectangle around the desired objects with
the mouse. Alternatively, you can click successively on several objects while
holding down the Shift key (Shiftª) to select them together.
