How to select multiple components at a time and move or copy them ?
Hold Shift Key and Select > Ctrl+C to copy > Ctrl+V to paste
Suppose there are 10 components in a schematic, and I want only 4 to select and move them ? How this can be done ?
I am not aware of any method to select multiple components if they are not arranged in a layout that can be selected using a rectangle selection box.
For what it’s worth, I’ve previously asked Mike for selection improvements:
- A second select action that selects only fully bounded elements.
- Add to selection.
- Remove from selection.
#1 should be possible, likely trivial. Because QSpice goes immediately into drag mode when the selection is completed (rather than highlighting selected items for a future action), the others would be more complicated.
Bottom line: Mike didn’t respond. Hopefully, that’s not a “no.”

Or is there any method to select a group of components and then drag or move them?
Hold Shift + Left Click to drag the mouse and draw a selection box.
Release the Left Click, and now the components within the selection box are selected.
If you release the Shift key, you can move components with wire connections.
If you hold the Shift key, you can move components with wire detach.
This is the only method of multiple component selection that I am aware of.

Thank you @KSKelvin. This is the solution for which I was searching.
