How do I select multiple photos at a time on my computer?

As you work with your Mylio Library, you’ll often need to choose the images you want to work with. Perhaps it’s to export several photos or to add them to an album. Mylio makes it easy to work with several photos at once.

Using the Select All Command

Select All is a quick way to select all media in the current view.

1. Open Mylio and locate the images, Folders, or Albums you want to select.
2. Right-click on a photo, Folder, or Album and choose Select All or open the Actions menu and choose Select All. Your selection will have a Blue Border indicating what is selected.

Selecting Adjacent Photos and Videos

When you’re working with Folders, Albums, or All Photos view, you can see a grid of multiple photos. If the photos and videos you want to select are in an adjacent sequence, you can select them using the following steps.

1. Open Mylio and locate the images you want to use.
2. Click on the first image. It will have a blue border indicating it is selected.
3. On your keyboard, hold down the Shift key and click the last image. Mylio will automatically select all images between the first and last image. All selected images will have a Blue Border indicating they are selected.

Selecting Non-Adjacent Photos and Videos

If the photos or videos you want to select are scattered (not in sequential order), use these steps to select them.

1. Open Mylio and locate the images you want to use.
2. Click on the first image. It will have a blue border indicating it is selected.
3. On your keyboard, hold down the Command key (macOS) or CTRL key (Windows) and click the next image you want to select. Continue to hold down the Command/CTRL key to select as many images as you want. All selected images will have a Blue Border indicating they are selected.

You can move more than one photo at a time into any slot on the slides page.

You can move any number of images to a single point in the Tukios program. 

1. Click on a single picture to select and move it.

OR To select multiple photos not in order, hold the "ctrl" button and click on all the pictures desired. This will highlight them.  

OR To select multiple photos that are in order, click on the first one, then press and hold the "shift" key and click on the last picture in the group. This will highlight all photos in between the first and last photo clicked.

2. Once you have the desired photos highlighted in green, simply drag them wherever you would like them to appear in the slideshow, like you would when moving a single picture. (Note: only the first photo will appear to move until you release the click, then the rest of the pictures will follow in order.)   

Note: Clicking on the background will deselect everything.

You can move the images around as needed. The family can also do this from the Family Upload Link.
