I have a cross functional work flow in visio 2003 with 6 horizontal swimlanes. I am trying to select multiple processes that are on top of the swimlanes, however, when trying to drag a selection area around them with the pointer tool (i.e. just left-clicking and dragging) it moves the swimlane that is underneath rather than starting the selection box.
To get around this I am having to ctrl + left click every process that i want to move, but is not feasible as the document gets bigger.
Thus far google
Any help would be greatly appreciated
1This solution does not really work in the context off rapidly adding new shapes, have multiple shapes in multiple groups, and having up to 100 shapes in a group. many thanks for the help, but i think this serves as more of an addition to the work around, but not a solution – BiGXERO – 2012-09-12T01:58:06.313
