Select multiple elements in PI System Explore at one time

When trying to move multiple elements to a different location, right now we have to select only one element at one time, we would like to be able to select multiple elements in PSE at one time. For now, we could use PI Builder as alternative.

      PSE is modeled similar to Windows Explorer. In Windows Explorer you're also not able to multi-select on the left-column. In PSE, you can do an element search to get the hierarchy onto the right pane. From there you can multi-select.

      In response to Stephen Kwan, "PSE is modeled similar to Windows Explor..." Another tool that is often overlooked is the Child Elements tab. Often, the elements people want to multi-select are all children of the same parent so they can select this parent in the left-hand pane, then switch to the Child Elements tab to get a list in the right pane, which allows multi-select. Here is an example with multiple pumps selected under the same parent

      In response to Brent Bregenzer, "Another tool that is often overlooked is..." That will do! Thanks Brent!
