Lasso select stamps

Post by BigFileMan »

Can a bunch of stamps be selected by lassoing?
I'd like to be able to lasso stamps Ive placed on a page, to move them as a group. The only way I have found to select multiple stamps is to hold down control key and click on each stamp.

Hello BigFileMan,

You can select stamps and other type of annotations using the Select comments tool:

You can select them directly on the page or in the comments pane.
In the comments pane, you can also group them by type and select only a certain type of annotations.

Regards.

Hello BigFileMan,

I have previously submitted a feature request on this topic. Initially it was completely rejected, but from the recent posts, it appears that it was not completely discarded.

Hopefully soon, there will be an easier way to do this. :-)
