Multi-selection no longer works. I updated both windows 11 and Archi. I don't know the cause.
When I select several elements using a frame made with the mouse, they appeared selected.
When I click again to move them with the right mouse held down, the elements are deselected except the one on which the cursor is positioned.

Hi, please can you provide the exact steps to reproduce the issue. Using the right mouse button is not correct as that will bring up the context menu. A single click and drag with left mouse button while holding the button down is the usual way to do this.

1) Select multiple elements by clicking inside the diagram and create a box arount the elements
The elements appears selected. One has the focus (black color).
2) Click inside one element with the left mouse button pressed and tentatively move the selected elements in some place inside the diagram.

When the left mouse is pressed, even it still pressed all the selected element except the one with the mouse cursor are deselected.

It was also difficult to obtain the option menu when clicking the right mouse button in a element.

Has said I upgraded to W11 27723.rs_prerelease.241004-1602, and I got a green screen later in the day.
Seem to me Archi was slow too. I was a little bit disguted. I stopped working to go climbing a little bit.

I think the problem is related to the mouse, not Archi.

I have to (re)do a lot in some diagram today.
I will give you a report by the end of the day.
Thank you

I would say so.

I see however a horizontal black line (1-2px) displayed in the middle of the most upper selected items in the group.
This has no effect, No impact.

Possibly an artefact of GPU/driver/etc. Probably closing/re=opening the View will help.
