# Selecting
`v` starts VISUAL: move to extend the selection from where you started, `space` to add or drop single rows, then act
on all of them at once.

| Key              |                                                                   |
|------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `j` `k` `gg` `G` | Extend the selection                                              |
| `space`          | Add or drop the row under the cursor                              |
| `d`              | Remove the selected (asks first)                                  |
| `m`              | Pin the selected                                                  |
| `y`              | Copy their paths                                                  |
| `o`              | Open them (in Repos: their sessions, importing those without one) |
| `⎋`              | Back to NORMAL                                                    |

In the Inbox and Issues, `space` picks items without VISUAL, for [starting a session](https://docs-v3-preview.elastic.dev/start-work/from-github)
from several at once.
