Want to select a large sized part of objects like Activities, Splits, arrows, etc. of a huge microflow

OutSystems Platform has a very useful manipulation for selecting Activities as of Mendix.
https://www.outsystems.com/forums/discussion/5760/usability-tip-ctrlshiftclick/

It says that pressing 'Ctrl' and 'Shift' keys and 'Left-Mouse-Click' on an Activity as of Mendix select all objects including the Activities, Splits, Arrows, etc. and the End event between the clicked Activity and 'End event'.

This feature is very useful for selecting a very large size of Microflow and moving the selection easily.
Unlike OutSystems Platform, Mendix Model cannot select objects which are too huge to show in one single Display (because selecting and moving mouse do not start horizontal scrolling).

Thus, we need this feature for Mendix Modeler.

Rom,  The (ctrl + scrollwheel down) works.  Thanks.

The point of my idea is a short-cut to select relevant objects by one action: 'Ctrl' + 'Shift' keys + 'Left-Mouse-Click'

Hi, I am using a 'ThinkPad Lenovo X1 Carbon'. It could zoom out up to Modeler version 6.8.1, but it can not do from 6.9.0.

You can just zoom out (ctrl + scrollwheel down) and select that way.
