Extending Multiple Objects Simultaneously with the Properties of an
Auxiliary Class
1 In the ConsoleOne right pane, Shift+click or Ctrl+click the objects to
select them.
The objects don’t have to be the same type.
2 Right-click your selection > click Extensions of Multiple Objects.
3 Depending on whether the auxiliary class that you want to use is already
listed under Current Auxiliary Class Extensions, complete the
appropriate action:
HINT: Only those extensions that are common to all the selected objects are
listed. Those that are specific to individual objects aren’t listed.
4 If a message appears stating that generic editors will be used, click OK.
5 On the screen that appears, set the property values you want.
IMPORTANT: Each property value you set will be applied to each selected object.
If the property already exists in the object and is single-valued, the existing value
will be replaced. If the property already exists and is multi-valued, the new values
will be added to the existing values.
Depending on which screen you’re using, also note the following:
Auxiliary Class Is
Already Listed?

See instead “Modifying an Object’s Auxiliary Properties”
on page 75. You’ll have to modify the objects one at a
time.
No Click Add Extension > select the auxiliary class > click
OK.
