Unable to move mulitple objects

[Asjemenou]

So I make a long wall and want to copy it and move it to the opposite side but I can only do piece by piece.

So how do I select this wall which are a lot of the same piece? ctrl+lmb doenst do the trick.

Another option I cant find is mirror an abject. IF.e. I want the wall piece (SiFI) be used at both sides so atm I place one at the position, speical copie it (ctrl+x)
Rotate is (which anit easy sometimes) and thjen place it against the other piece. Also this combo I would like to move to save up some time.

Hope you have a tip for me

I'm not sure why (in build mode) holding down control and clicking the various pieces does not work for you. There is a button on the lower right hand corner of the UI that is called the "multi-select" tool. Once you click this button, you should be able to multi-select and copy items.

Once you multi-select your items, use Control+D to duplicate your selection.

As for mirroring objects, like a wall, you can do this as well with Control+D. Once you've duplicated your wall (control+D), make sure you are turning your wall piece properly. For instance, if you duplicate a wall on the left, you will need to rotate your wall 180 degrees for it to be the same on the right.

I hope this makes sense and/or helps you!

Lovely! I didnt even seen that button but that part works fine now and I can select the wall piece but.////after I hit ctrl+d and then want to make a copy of the selected stuff it moves the original object.

Im still hoping someoen can help me out cause atm its a no go and build again situation, its very annoying.

Only thing atm I can is selecting multiple objects. I can not make a copy of it. If I move it it moves the original desingn which is not ok.

Have seen a tut from CTOP (found on this forum) but it seems the ctrl+D option does work just fine. What the heck I did wrong I dont know. What I do know is that I diid not select the multi selection at the right button corner.

My guess would be that you were in build mode that time. I think the multi select tool exits you out of build mode.

To select multiple things in the future while you are in build mode, just click and drag your mouse. It will highlight every object within the rectangle you draw.
