Robert A. Weinberg Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 Have I forgotten how to do this? I want to select multiple titles in Item Checklist from Report in menu bar for CB, but I am unable to do this. Maybe I'm clicking on wrong keys. I click on one title and its highlighted and click on Control key clicking on another title, but it just highlights that title. I can use shift key and highlight mutiple titles in a row, but I don't want to do that. I want to highlight several titles not in a row. What am I missing?
Steven L. Dasinger Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 Have you tried clicking in 'Selected Titles' in the Titles to Print' area?
Robert A. Weinberg Posted July 10, 2021 Author Posted July 10, 2021 Steve, it's grayed out, if I'm catching your meaning. What keys should I press for multiple non sequential titles?
Steven L. Dasinger Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 To select non-consecutive Titles, press and Hold the CTRL key while clicking on the Titles (you can release the CTRL key while scrolling as long as you remember to press/hold it again before selecting more). The print is to small for me to read on the item checklist window but since it has a Red box around it, it needs something selected/corrected before the Print button will become active.
Robert A. Weinberg Posted July 10, 2021 Author Posted July 10, 2021 CTRL key doesn't work for this, not sure why. Is this a bug, or somehing to do with Parallels on my Mac? ALT/CTRL(CMD/OPT) key works for non-consecutive items on my Mac. However, that doesn't work either with CB. Puzzled!
Steven L. Dasinger Posted July 10, 2021 Posted July 10, 2021 Use of the CTRL for selecting non-consecutive items is a Windows function. Can you use CTRL in CB just to select non-consecutive Items (issues)? Also, try opening an Windows Explorer window (outside CB) and see if you can use CTRL to select non-consecutive files. If it works there, it should work in CB. It works on my Windows computer so it coup be a Parallels thing (maybe some setting is needed).
Robert A. Weinberg Posted July 10, 2021 Author Posted July 10, 2021 I just figured it out. On my keyboard there is a CTRL/OPT key on the right and a CTRL key on the left side. The one on the left works with Windows/Parallels. On a Mac both CTRL keys work the same way. I kept usuing the one on the right. Who knew...not me.

On my Macbook Pro that isn't quite a year old I have individual Fn, Control, Option, and Command keys on the left, but only Command and Option on the right (plus the four arrow keys on the right).
Robert A. Weinberg Posted July 12, 2021 Author Posted July 12, 2021 I'm using a 2020 iMac with a Logi keyboard with numeric keys.
Gregory Hecht Posted July 12, 2021 Posted July 12, 2021 Ah, so not a genuine Mac keyboard. It's probably a thing where Parallels is expecting a regular Mac keyboard.
