Post by Zhiwu »

When I move the indicator to modeling window to build a measurement model, I can move indicator one by one for one latent variable or move multiple indicators which are in consecutive position in indicator window. But how can I move multiple indicators which are NOT in consecutive position in indicator window to the model window for one latent variable at one time?

You can hold the CONTROL key to select multiple indicators at one time, that are not in consecutive order or the SHIFT key, to select multiple indicators that are in consecutive order!

And, at least on my system, after the final click, with either CNTRL or SHIFT depressed, without releasing the click, move the indicators to the latent variable. If you, for example, click on one indicator, then CNTRL click on several others, then let go of the mouse button and try to move the group of indicators by pressing and holding the mouse button down while over one of the previously selected indicators, you will only move the one idicator that you most recently clicked. This is different than the functionality within Windows and many other Window's programs (at least the US versions).
