Revu Multi-Select Add & Remove

Ability to keep adding too or remove from a selection when using Click+Drag & Lasso selecting commands.

The shortcuts show a Multi-Select option using Shift+Left-Click+Drag which only allows you to use it while using other commands which the Right-Click+Drag command already does.

I believe the Shift+Click+Drag should be changed to Add to current selection.

Examples below:

Add all items in the highlighted sections using multiple select drags with <Shift+Click+Drag>:

Remove highlighted section from entire selection using <Shift+Ctrl+Click+Drag>?:

Cannot currently deselect items under other items while in selecting process, adding this selecting option to remove all "Drag Selected" items would help.

I understand the work around would be to temporarily group the items you would want deselected, but this is adding another step to the process.

    We have also asked about this function and am glad that this has come up with other bluebeam users as well (hopefully this gets pushed into an upcoming update). Especially with strenuous quantities of markups that we are looking to assign in to our custom columns for estimating commercial projects.

    Even in small projects having to select markups one by one after committing to the initial multi select becomes a task of dozens of single selections and missing even one markup selection while holding shift results in starting from scratch.

    Enabling the feature as you describe it as "Add to current selection" will allow for faster selection, faster work, and far less room for human error.
