Selecting DSS Pathnames is no mystery. Just highlight one or more pathnames (rows) in the Pathname list then click the Select button. Or, double-click on each pathname you want to select. The pathnames you select will appear in the Selected Pathnames list.
"Figure: Pathname Selection Tools" illustrates the row of buttons that are provided below the Selected Pathnames list in the DSSVue interface.

Each of the buttons in the set of Selection Tools is described below:
Select—To add pathnames to the Selected Pathnames list, highlight (click on) the pathnames to want to add in the Pathname List then click the Select button.
De-Select—To remove pathnames from the Selected Pathnames list, select the pathnames you want to remove the click the De-Select button.
Clear Selections—To remove all the pathnames from the Selected Pathnames list, click the Clear Selections button.
Restore Selections—This tool works as an UNDO button for the Clear Selections option; it restores the state of the Selected Pathnames list from right before the Clear Selections button was last pressed.
Set Time Window—This tool does not directly operate on the list of Selected Pathnames. Instead, it is a shortcut for the Display -> Time Window… command, which allows you to set a time window for viewing and editing your selected datasets.
