I can't select multiple layers with Acrobat Reader

I am implemeting a lot of different layers in AutoCAD files (.Dwg)

 

Today I had this meeting where I presented the results on a PDF file using Acrobat reader 2017 to show the work I've done so far.

 

So with AutoCAD it's really easy to do a multiple selection of layers using CTRL and SHIFT, like in a lot of softwares. From there I can decide to turn ON/OFF my selection of layers with a simple click.

 

My goal was that non-AutoCAD users could do the same in the team I work using PDF versions of the drawings.

But I was not able to show them how usefull having multiple layers can be because I was unable to do a multiple layers selection while reading my pdf file with Acrobat Reader 2017. 

 

CTRL and SHIFT simply does not work, and nobody wants to click 500 times to have the right layers ON.

 

I want to be able to select multiple layers in a PDF easily and to turn them ON/OFF easy too.

 

So here I am asking the community because GOOGLE clearly states it's doable but I was not able to.

 

Please Help Adobe Community !
