My task is to select some of the features in a layer so that the whole area of them can be near to a particular value. While I got trouble when using select tools in ArcMap 10.6.

enter image description here



For example I want to select the features in the pics above in the same time, while I don't know how to select them continuously, since when I select the features on the top and the selections of features under will disappear. I try to press ctrl as it works in Excel while it doesn't work in ArcMap.

  • You are doing select by attribute? If so then use parameter ADD_TO_SELECTION. Is it the case? desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/tools/data-management-toolbox/…

If you are selecting features interactively and want to select multiple contiguous (or non-contiguous) features at one time, use the shift key while clicking.



See Selecting Features Interactively for more information.

    Even a better way than holding the Shift key on the keyboard, would be to change the Selection behavior in ArcMap. By default, each time you click on features it creates a new selection. You can go to the Selection menu and change the Interactive Selection Method for multiple choices:



    • Add to current selection (continuously adds to a current selection; requires you use the Clear Selection tool to clear the selected features).

    • Remove from current selection (continuously removes features from what you have selected)

    • Select from the current selection (self-explanatory).

I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48.
