that should be the Control instead of Shift. as with that you can select 
additional objects.

The Apply button shows the result for all selected objects without leaving the 
dialog. So after you change something in the dialog you can see with apply if 
that is what you want. If not you can change the settings again without the 
need of reopening the dialog. The apply is not there for the preview but for 
the selected objects.

It would be great if you could update the first point you made.

I hope this clears things up if not please ask again so that we are sure we 
talk about the same things.

Thanks for your help.
