In the Windows, Mac or Linux version of PlanMaker, you can select cells and cell content as follows:
Selecting via the mouse
To select something via the mouse, proceed as follows:
▪Selecting cell ranges
| You can select arbitrary cell ranges by pressing and holding down the left mouse button while you drag the mouse cursor over the cells to be selected. |
▪Selecting whole rows and columns
| An entire column can be selected by clicking on its column header. Column headers are buttons displayed above the worksheet (labeled A, B, C, etc.). |
| There are also row headers for each row, which are located to the left of the worksheet and are labeled 1, 2, 3, etc. If you click on a row header, the entire row will be selected. |
| If you left-click and drag the mouse cursor over several column or row headers, you can select multiple columns or rows at the same time. |
▪Selecting the entire worksheet
| The button in the upper left corner of the worksheet window (above 1 and to the left of A) has a special function: clicking on it will select the entire worksheet. |
| Alternatively, you can do the same via the ribbon command Home | Select all  . |
▪Selecting a single cell
| To select a single cell, click on it, drag the mouse cursor to an adjacent cell, and drag it back again (while holding down the left mouse button). |
▪Selecting non-contiguous cell ranges
| You can also select non-contiguous cell ranges. To do so, hold down the Ctrl key and and then select the desired cell ranges with the mouse button. (Mac users: Cmd key) |
▪Selecting only part of the cell content
| To select only part of the content of a cell, proceed as follows: |
| First, double-click on the cell to edit its content. Then, drag the mouse cursor over the characters that you want to select (while holding down the left mouse button). |
▪Selecting objects
| To select an object (for example, a picture, a drawing, etc.), simply click on it with the mouse. A frame will then appear around the object to indicate that it is now selected. |
| To select multiple objects, switch to object mode (see Object mode). |
Selecting via the keyboard
Alternatively, you can use the keyboard for selecting. To do so, proceed as follows:
▪Selecting cell ranges
| To select a range of cells, hold down the Shiftñ key, and select the cells by navigating with the arrow keys. |
| If, for example, you navigate to cell B5, hold down the Shiftñ key and press â five times, cells B5 to B10 will be selected. For a list of all key combinations for moving and selecting within a worksheet, see Shortcut keys. |
▪Selecting a single cell
| To select a single cell, navigate to that cell, hold down the Shiftñ key, use any arrow key to select an adjacent cell and then return to the original cell. |
| From the cell to be selected and while holding down the Shift keyñ, first press the à key and then the ß key. |
▪Selecting non-contiguous cell ranges
| Non-contiguous cell ranges can only be selected with the mouse (see above). |
▪Selecting only part of the cell content
| To select only part of the content of a cell, proceed as follows: |
| Navigate to the cell and press the F2 key to edit its content. Then, use the arrow keys together with the Shiftñ key to select text in the usual manner. |
