…using wwf4, VS2010

a co-worker built an app that host WWF4, he did a good job and I generally trust his skills. The one annoyance is that I can’t move more than one object on the designer surface at a time, which means modifying the layout of a moderately complex workflow is a major PITA.

He says that he tried, but came to the conclusion that you could not do anything with the wwf design surface. He’s good and I trust his words, but I’m older… anything can be done.

what are my options for implementing
1. drag and select
2. multi-object move via the keyboard

    Your co-worker is right, there’s no support for it at all. The designer will be greatly improved with .NET 4.5.

    Multi-select

    • Multiple activities can be selected at one time, either by dragging a
      rectangle around them (when pan mode is not enabled), or by holding
      down Ctrl.

    • Multiple activity selections can also be dragged and dropped within
      the designer, and can also be interacted with using the context menu.
