Many actions can be performed to more than one task at a time such as Copy/Paste, Delete, Replace Resources etc. The first thing you need to learn is how to select multiple tasks.
- When a summary task is selected, it and all its subtasks are selected. For example, the summary task Prototype Backpanel PCBA and all its subtasks are selected.
- Selected tasks are highlighted in cyan in the plan and orange in the Task Grid.
