Option to select multiple visuals and Move

Is there any way to select multiple visuals on a tab by selecting an area with mouse cursor (like how we can select multiple slide objects by moving our cursor in Power point) ? Also, how can we move multiple selected visuals using Arrow keys ? I believe these would add value and save time in moving the visuals on the tab.

 

For example, I had to select below 4 visuals, and had to click them one by one (with Ctrl), and then use my mouse precisely to move them to another position. If we had hover to select, and use arrows to move, it would be awesome.

Go to View Tab and check the Selection Pane option.

Now you are able to select visuals from Selection Panel.
Ctrl+mouse click on one of the visuals than move with mouse .

Also, it would be awesome if there is an option to group Shapes. Just to make it easy to select, move, copy and paste etc. For example, I have added shapes to show it as a legend across the tabs, however, when I need to re-use them, I need to do Ctrl+Click on 6 shapes in this case.Capture.JPG

No. Currently, it's not supported to select multiple items or group visuals. You can only hold + click to select multiple objects. Please submit a feature request on idea.
