Which term allows you to select multiple objects?

• A. Box
• B. The Main Toolbar has tools
• C. The G Key
• D. Holding down the CTRL key

Answer: (D)

Additive selection is what lets you pick multiple objects without losing the ones you’ve already chosen. In 3DS Max, using a modifier key while you click adds each new object to the current selection. Holding down the CTRL key and clicking objects adds them one by one, so you can build a group of selected items. You can also use a selection box while CTRL is held to add everything inside the box to your current selection. Releasing CTRL returns you to the normal behavior, where a new click replaces the previous selection. The other options don’t provide this additive behavior—a box refers to a selection method, the G key toggles the grid, and the main toolbar contains tools rather than governing multi-select.
