Objects

  • Names and their line styles shown on the right

Be able to select multiple objects in a chart by selecting multiple narrow line segments inside a bounding box.
Eases to find their common grouping objects (Same host? Same node? Same array?)

  • Hold the CTRL Key to add the objects in the bounding box to the current selection
