Selectdatabasefunction:

The soft buttons are used to choose the various object utility functions.

Name Name selected objects.

Delete Delete selected objects.

Dump Dump selected objects over MIDI.

Each function’s multiple object selection interface is identical to the one used in the Save Objects dialog. For a complete description of this interface, see Saving Individual Objects on page 13-25.Here is what the Move page would look like (with several objects selected):

If you press Cancel while in one of the object utilities, you return to the Object Utilities page (the “Select database function:” dialog pictured above). Any objects that were selected when you pressed Cancel will still be selected if you subsequently enter a different object utility (by pressing a different soft button such as Name, for example). The selections are reset when you exit the Object Utilities page (by pressing the Done button).
