Visual feedback for selection of chord symbols
I've now figured out how to select a sequence of chord symbols (and presumably Nashville numbers).
It's basically a standard - click on start element, then shift-click on end element.
However, there is no very clear visual feedback that I can see that the chord symbols have actually been selected, either by a change of colour or other font characteristic or by an enclosing box. Most often in Musescore selections are shown by a bounding box. It would be helpful if there could be some visual feedback, as this would then reduce the likelihood of selection errors for chords.

No, click, Shift+click is a Range selection, you want a list selection, click, Ctrl+click, Ctrl+click...
You also can select a range of measures, right-click a chord symbol, choose "Select, All similar Elements in Range Selection".
They do change to the selected color of the voice they belong to for me. So check under
Edit → Preferences → Advanced
that the color for "ui/score/voice1/color
" isn't black. (Chord symbols by default use voice 1)Click, Shift-Click performs the same as "select all similar elements within range" since 3.5; so you don't need to Ctrl-Click each symbol anymore.
