In most areas of Autodesk Inventor Professional and Vault, multi-selection works by highlighting the first item in a list, then holding SHIFT while selecting the last item — automatically including everything in between.

Components lower in the hierarchy can change their action based on their parent by holding CTRL while switching the parent’s status. This allows you to control component actions efficiently, even in complex assemblies.
