=== Activating the Multi Select Mode ===
<tabs><tab name="UWP: ">Clicking on a Multi Select button, which will appear when hovering over an item, activates the Multi Select mode. A panel at the left side gets displayed.</tab>
<tab name="XAMARIN: ">The Multi Select mode gets enabled by holding (long tapping) an item. As soon as it is active, a panel on the bottom gets displayed.</tab></tabs>
=== Multi Select panel ===
The first one is to selecting all items, the second for deselecting all items at one click. The "x" button closes the panel and deactivates the Multi Select mode.
Further, the panel contains two tabs.
The "properties" tab displays all common editable properties of the selected items. If none are selected, or if the selected items dont share any common properties, it will remain empty.
The "other options" tab contains buttons to perform actions on all selected items.
</tab>
<tab name="XAMARIN">
The Multi Select panel in the XAMARIN client is located at the bottom.
It displays the count of selected items, command buttons for Copy, Discard, Delete and Download actions and a close button to deactivate the Multi Select mode.
</tab>
</tabs>
{{Hint|Note: Please only use the buttons in the Multi Select Panel to perform actions on the selected objects. Others, like content area / context menu button actions are still related to the content page and do not work for the selected objects.}}
For the current usecase and the standard client, the Multi Select mode can be activated for Document and Children objects in parallel, hence when activating the Multi Select mode in the Children tab and then switching to Documents tab, it is possible to enable a separate Multi Select panel there.
By navigating away from the related content page, all active Multi Select modes get deactivated automatically.
By default, all objects are deselected when the Multi Select Mode gets invoked. Items can be selected by tapping on them. Therefore, navigating into the related objects by tapping on them is no longer available. To be able to navigate again, the Multi Select mode needs to be exited.
In UWP, there are some additional selection options further to the above mentioned "Select All" and "Deselect All" buttons. Selecting or deselecting a bunch of items in a row can be achieved by holding shift and first clicking on the first required item and then clicking on the last required item.
