Selecting Items in a Group

In InDesign, is there a way to select more than 2 items in a group? It seems after selecting the second item, it then selects the entire group.

    A little workaround we came past, is to carefully select the items of the group with the "white arrow"-tool, but do not click into one of the 5 white points (corners/middle).

    Way easier to do using the layers panel.

    Wow, I never thought of that!

    Although, some grouped items are a pain to do that, ie. a line of circles. It doesn't show you which item you are selecting (like Illustrator). Any tricks for that?

    Thanks BobLevine
