title: How to Edit multiple lines in Visual studio 2017 at once
body: <p>I'm following a series of videos on Youtube on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SwTr7YHQJfo&amp;list=PLid95FTT3ehi1gtICaGsLfFXGAbVhNg84&amp;index=2" rel="noreferrer">how to develop a dashboard using bootstrap</a>. The developer in that series uses the Sublime Text editor.</p>
  
  <p>I've noticed that sometimes he clicks on multiple places (one after another) then start typing, and whatever he's typing appears on all these places. I think that saves a lot of time.</p>
  
  <p>In VS and SSMS, one can press ALT then select a rectangle that will be modified. But this one is different as you can just select randomly several places, then start typing.</p>
  
  <p>Do we have the same functionality in <strong>Visual Studio 2017</strong>?</p>
