- Many editing operations in Ardour require you to first <dfn>select one or more
- regions</dfn> that you want to change in some way. You can select a single region,
- or multiple regions, including regions in different tracks. When you select
- a region, it will appear in a darker color than unselected regions.
-</p>
-<p>
- Note that if a track is a member of a group that is active and has the
- <kbd class="option">Select</kbd> property enabled, then Ardour will attempt to
- match whatever selections you make in one track across every other track of the
- group. See
- <a href="/working-with-regions/corresponding-regions-selection/">Corresponding
- Regions Selection</a> for more information on precisely how selections will be
- propagated to other tracks.

-<h2>Region Selection and Track Selection</h2>
-<p>
- Please read
- <a href="/working-with-tracks/selecting-tracks/region-and-track-selection">Region & Track Selection</a>
- for more information on how selecting regions and selecting tracks interact.

-<h2>Select a Region</h2>
-<p>
- Confirm that you are using the
- <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/the-editing-toolbar/#object">Object tool</a>,
- then click on a region to select it. If
- <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/the-editing-toolbar/#smartmode">smart mode</a>
- is enabled, click in the lower half of the region.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Deselect a Region</h2>
-<p>
- Confirm you are using the
- <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/the-editing-toolbar/#object">Object tool</a>,
- then <kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>-click the region. If
- <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/the-editing-toolbar/#smartmode">smart mode</a>
- is enabled, click in the lower half of the region.
-</p>
-<p>
- Note that a <kbd class="mouse mod1">left</kbd> click simply toggles the
- selected status of an object, so it can be used to select unselected regions
- too.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Select Multiple Regions in a Track</h2>
-<p>Do one of the following:</p>
-<ul>
- <li><kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>-click each region, or</li>
- <li>
- drag a rubberband box from an empty point in a track before the first
- region you wish to select to a point within or after the last region
- you wish to select (you can <kbd class="mouse mod1">left</kbd>-drag to do this
- multiple times), or,
- </li>
- <li>
- if the regions are all adjacent to one another, click the first region
- you wish to select, then <kbd class="mouse mod3">Left</kbd>-click the last
- region you wish to select.
- </li>
-</ul>
-
-<h2>Select All Regions in a Track</h2>
-<p>
- Context-click the track, and in the context menu, navigate to
- <kbd class="menu">Select > Select All In Track</menu>.
-</p>
-<p>
- See the <a href="/working-with-tracks/the-track-context-menu">Track Context Menu</a>
- for more information on other per-track selection operations that are available.

-
-<h2>Select Multiple Regions Across Different Tracks</h2>
-<p>
- <kbd class="mouse mod1">Left</kbd>-click or <kbd class="mouse
- mod3">Left</kbd>-click the regions you wish to select.
-</p>
-
-<h2>Select a Region From the Region List</h2>
-<p>
- Click the name of the region in the
- <a href="/ardours-interface/introducing-the-editor-window/editor-lists/region-list/">Region List</a>.
- Note that this will do nothing for whole-file regions, since they do not exist
- anywhere in a playlist or track.
