In multi-selection, Shift+Click should select range of events

If I have event-A, event-B and event-C back to back, instead of having to Cmd+Click 3 times to select all three, I could Click event-A and then Shift+Click event-C to select all three.

This behavior seems to be standard across Finder, Linear, Gmail, Spotify, YNAB, WhatsApp Web, and likely many others.

Generalizing, Click would set boundary-A, Shift+Click would set boundary-B, and the selection would cover min(A,B) <> max(A,B).

    I assume the shift + mouse drag doesn't suit your usecase.

    If you were to hold the shift key would it select all tasks, events and frames between the time frame?

      Danny Hatcher (Customer Support), correct! And if I wanted to exclude a specific item that was covered by the time frame, I would Cmd+Click it, like in the mentioned apps.
