[QUOTE="cazabam, post: 349588, member: 17895"] I agree with eric. The best thing would be to command-drag several times to 'build up' a selection. Shift-click is only useful if you're selecting a continuous range of files which doesn't really exist in thumbnail (icon) view - you can put icons anywhere without any particular ordering. TBH, I never even noticed that shift-selecting a range didn't work in icon view - if I'm doing that sort of thing I switch to column view so I can see things as a list rather than a mass of icons.
