Select mass global tracks without selecting regions

Question

Select mass global tracks without selecting regions

Logic has a weird bug where if I select all, move it, then undo, none of the global tracks move back to their original position (bug report submitted to Apple).

So, for now, I need to know how to select a large number of global tracks. I have something with 20 markers, about 10 meter changes, numerous tempo changes.

In every other program on the computer, shift-click accomplishes exactly this. It selects everything between what is highlighted and the click. In Logic, shift-click only selects what is clicked (which for the rest of the computer is command click, which in Logic is the secondary tool selector).

I just figured it out for my scenario. If you select a Marker/Signature, and choose Edit>Select>All Following of Same Track, it highlights only that global track. If you shift-click and select a Marker and Signature and do the same, it selects all the following for both.

As far as I know, there's no way to select within a range only one track. Edit>Select>All Inside Locators selects all global tracks and regions.

Which Logic version do you use? On mine (v10.6), undo and redo works fine on the Global Tracks.
