How to multiple select objects in Model Explorer

Hi,

you best do this in the "Explorer" instead of the "Model Explorer". The latter is the navigation window you see with an opened model.

Select a group in the Explorer tree. On the right hand side you get a list of models or objects. Toggle this with the buttons above the list view. In this list you can sort objects by type or name and also do multi-select with the usual mouse and keyboard operations (Ctrl, Shift in combination with mouse-clicks). With a multi-selection you can move all selected to any group you want.

Note that there is also a clean-up report to move objects to where they belong. This is particularly useful, if you moved the models around a lot, but forgot to do a "Move here with objects". Before using this in your production database gather some experience with it in a test database, because it is very powerful and you can get done a lot in one go. But it requires a little planning.

Note that it is good practice to keep the objects in the same place as the models that govern the objects, i. e. where there is a model owner who is also responsible for the object shown in the model. E. g. a role object created first in a process usually is in the wrong place and it should go somewhere where the owner of the role descriptions governs the collection of roles in some model type.

That's exactly what I was looking for, many thanks!
