Acrobat Pro 2020 Grab & Move Multiple Objects

I use the Comment tool almost exclusively to draw lines, circles, insert text, callouts, etc. I cannot figure out how to "lasso" or "rope" multiple objects and move them around the page. My workaround is to individually select each object while holding down CTRL + Mouse Click.

 

Is there a way to grab multiple objects and move them around without individually clicking them?

You can do it using the Select Object tool (a black cursor, without a caret next to it).

Select it and then drag and draw a rectangle over your comments, and they'll be all selected. However, it will also select fields and links in that area, if they exist.

Yes that's it, thank you. I did not have the Select Object tool on my Quick Tools; found it under "Rich Media" tools.
