• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Multiple select and rotating objects ?

Hi gents.

Long time I been here. Still working extremely hard editing my FS2004 airports. Tons edited right now and continuing.

My actual project is moving all very small airports in the Bahamas from water position to ground position. As I didn't have to do that in the past on large airports, I'm facing a little problem. How can I do a multi-select objetct to move them all at once without clicking on each one holding the shift key ? Is there a simple way as in AFX by dragging the mouse cursor over the object to select ?

And once the objects are moved to the right place, how I can rotate them to realign everything correctly ?

Thanks for you help.

ADE provides move airport and rotate airport functions which are available with the ProKey
 
Jon.

Without the prokey, there is no way to do an object multi-select at once ? No capability to rotate a single polygon or rotating several parkings template at once ?

Andre.
 
You can select multiple objects without a ProKey ofc ourse by dragging a rectangle with the mouse with the 'R' key held down. You can rotate a polygon but you cant rotate multiple objects at the same time
 
Jon.

Thank you so much for the tip about the R key. That make things so much easier and faster. Therefore, after selecting a polygon, I don't see any way to rotate it ?

Andre.
 
Select the polygon. Hold down the Alt key and use your mouse wheel. If you want larger increments then use Alt+Shift

Oh boy. Same as in AFX. Sorry, I didn't think about this method. Your help will make my life much easier.
