Can only select one item at a time?

Can only select one item at a time?

(OP)
Ok here is another one ofr you Cadd experts.  I am using LDD 2005.  Some setting has changed regarding how things are selected.  Typically when you right click on an item it is selected.  As you right click several more items they too become selected.  I have apparently changed some setting that has made all of my selections one offs.  That is, when I right click an item it still gets selected but when I right click on a second item the first item becomes "un-selected" and the second one becomes selected.  This makes it impossible to select several items without use of a window.

I suspect that this some fairly simple setting but I can't seem to find it.

Help is appreciated.

Set PICKADD to 1.

This can accidentally get changed by clicking on "+" icon at top of Properties window.

Thanks CarlB -

I got it fixed and I am sure that I did just what you said about selecting by accident in the properties window.
