.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: SelectionMode
   :no-index:
   

   .. attribute:: BROWSE

      Exactly one element is selected.
      In some circumstances, such as initially or during a search
      operation, it’s possible for no element to be selected with
      :const:`~gi.repository.Gtk.SelectionMode.BROWSE`. What is really enforced is that the user
      can’t deselect a currently selected element except by selecting
      another element.







   .. attribute:: MULTIPLE

      Any number of elements may be selected.
      The Ctrl key may be used to enlarge the selection, and Shift
      key to select between the focus and the child pointed to.
      Some widgets may also allow Click-drag to select a range of elements.







   .. attribute:: NONE

      No selection is possible.







   .. attribute:: SINGLE

      Zero or one element may be selected.
