[Rwp] Concept for selecting tracks noncontiguously?

[Christopher-Mark Gilland]

You're awesome, James!  Thank you for the quick response.  That's exactly what I needed.  God was I close!  The only thing I was doing differently was I was hitting down arrow after going to track 1, then shift spacing, so yeah, I was on the right track.

Chris.

  The way to think of it is that shift+arows is multi selection. By default, it's contiguous. Once you press shift+space, it's non-contiguous. So, to select tracks 1 and 3:
  1. Move to track 1. When you move to a track normally, it's always selected.
  2. Press shift+space to switch to non-contiguous. Now shift+arrows are non-contiguous.
  3. Press shift+downArrow to move to track 2. Because it's non-contiguous, it'll move there without selecting it.
  4. Press shift+downArrow to move to track 3. It's unselected, same as step 3.
  5. Now shift+space to select.
  Done.

    I know about shift up, and shift down arrow to select tracks contiguously if they're right there together, but how do you do this if you need to select noncontiguously?  Say I have 3 tracks, and I need to select 1, and 3.  How would I do that?  I see the shift+Space action to enable noncontiguous selection, but once I'm sitting on track 1, and I hit shift+space, I then hear noncontiguous.  Then, how do I go down to track 3 and select it as well, without unselecting track 1?  Again, please give instructions for Windows users with Osara, not with OSX.

    Chris.
