Methods of multiselecting
...
- by clicking and dragging the mouse pointer across assets, marking a rectangle area,
- by clicking a grey checkmark in the corner of an asset card,
- by using keyboard shortcut "Ctrl + A" to select all assets ona page,
- by using "Select all/Select visible" menu.
The checkmarks are normally hidden and will only become visible when the user hovers mouse pointer over an asset. Once multiselect mode is activated - which happens once at least once asset is selected - all the grey checkmarks become visible until selection is cleared.
The user can select assets from multiple locations, for example from different pages, folders and the free-text search preview. The selection pool remains intact with the possibility of adding more assets, until the user either clicks on the neutral area or clears the selection.

The user can mark a larger selection of assets quickly by clicking on the dot next to "Assets" in the upper left corner of the asset area on homepage, and selecting either "Select visible" or "Select all" from the dropdown menu.
Multiselect menu
Once the selection process is started, the multiselect menu appears on the top bar, next to the search box.
The following options are available in the multiselect menu:
- Multi Edit,
- Group Edit,
- sharing,
- downloading,
- showing the selection in a separate window,
- comparing assets,
- creating a new collection with selection,
- clearing the selection.
The multiselect menu is draggable, i.e. the user can add all the selected assets to a collection by dragging the menu on top of the collections's name in the left-side menu panel.
