Select Object with the left mouse click
I would call that a failed method. If it is part of a collection – it is easy to select more than you want. Shift click is probably what you wanted.

Dear Thalamus,
the method never fails, you must have misunderstood the procedure, it even works with objects that have been placed in the collections manager.
The method will allow you to select one object at a time so that you can work with it.
Visual Pinball /Property Select Element and Layers will enable the table designer to organize his objects.
Highlighting a single object would be difficult if the Select Element and Layer system was not available. This would be applicable for example : when lights are piled on top of lights and you need to work with one of them.
The collection manager will not be interfered with when changing an objects layer position
The method could fail if your primary mouse button has been reversed. (Mouse Properties)
Its a good tried and tested method.
Definition of an Object
Walls,Ramps,Gates,Flippers,Bumper,Spinners,Timers,Plungers,Targets,Decals,Flashers,Rubbers,EmReels,TextBox,LightSequence,Lights,Primitives,Triggers and,Kickers.

Sure. Open a 32a table. Left click a wall … see if you select ONE object – I bet you don’t. Since I don’t tell which table. I of course can be wrong. But, in a very high percentage at least of most of his tables. Shift clicking however is the way for ONE object to be selected in that case and that is why I told you that your method is partly wrong.

Dear Thalamus you are correct
Shift left click will select an object.
Shift and Left click can be used to select a group of objects, you can also use the mouse to manufacture a rectangular box which can be positioned over all objects that want to be selected. (By default/unless your primary mouse button has been reversed)
Left click will only be needed to select one single object at a time. (By default/unless your primary mouse button has been reversed)
This method works on all Tables.
This can only be altered if you have access to a programmable mouse input device.
Maybe you are working with a programmable mouse input device.
