# Editing

With &appname;, you may safely cut, copy, paste to and from the clipboard.

## Cut/Delete

Deletion applies to current selection.

Be warned that selecting and deleting all profiles of an action leaves it without any profile, so in an invalid state. The name of the action will be written in red (because it is invalid) and italic (because it has been modified) characters.

## Multiple selection

Multiple selection is possible in &appname;. You can extend the current selection by pressing Ctrl or Shift while selecting an item to add to the selection.

&appname; only accepts homogeneous multiple selections. That is, you may select one or more profiles, or one or more actions or menus. A multiple selection containing both profiles and actions or menus is not allowed. This is because &appname; would not know where to paste such a selection.

Note that selecting any row means also selecting children of this row. These children are said &laquosp;implicitely selected&spraquo;: they will be part of next edition operations, but are not considered when verifying if selection is homogeneous. Also, they cannot be explicitely selected (nor unselected).
