Description

Describe the solution you'd like
I want to select multiple tables or relationships in ERD tool in other ways.

Describe alternatives you've considered
Select few tables with a selection box or select all tables on canvas with CTRL+A.

Additional context
Right now it's possible to select multiple tables by SHIFT+Right Click. Right Click -> Select All does nothing.

Research direction

Start by examining the ERD tool's existing multi-selection behavior, especially SHIFT+Right Click and the current Right Click → Select All action. The work is complete when a selection box can select multiple tables or relationships and CTRL+A selects all tables on the canvas without breaking existing selection behavior.
