Selecting non-contiguous lines in Pages

Hello,

How can I select text lines that are not next to each other at once in Pages or other programs?

Option-Shift does not work.

Pages does not support non-contiguous text selection. It hasn't since it was rewritten and released in Oct. 2013. Alternatively, MS Word and LibreOffice Writer do support your non-contiguous selection goal.
