OnePager provides several methods for selecting one or multiple tasks/milestones in order to make manual edits:

(2) Multiple selections Select multiple tasks/milestones by holding down the Control key (CTRL) and then selecting several tasks or milestones using successive left-clicks.
(3) Lasso You can also drag a selection lasso around a group of tasks/milestones by first left-clicking the mouse in some empty area of the graph and then dragging the selection rectangle around a group of tasks/milestones. Releasing the mouse left-click button will select the tasks/milestones inside the lasso.
(4) Select all Alternatively, go to the OnePager Home tab and click Select All button in the Editing group to select all tasks/milestones on the screen. Then you can hold down the Control key and deselect tasks that you do not want to select.
