==One by one==

* Hold {{Shortcut|shift}} while clicking on a handle '''to add''' it to the current selection.
 
* Hold {{Shortcut|control}} while clicking on a handle '''to toggle''' the selection '''on''' and '''off''' without affecting the selection status of the other handles.
 
==By group==
 
* Drag a rectangle around a group of handles to select them all and unselect the other handles.
 
* Hold {{Shortcut|shift}} while dragging a rectangle around a group of handles to select them as well as the currently selected handles. You can repeat the operation, the new selected handles will be '''added''' to current selection.
