Article Summary
Consider you have multiple UI elements all performing a similar function, like elements of a dropdown menu on a page. Instead of having to create different Smart Tips for each, Whatfix enables you to select all the similar UI elements and create Smart Tips that appear on each element. This feature is only available for Flows, and Smart Tips (excluding Validation Tips) with On Hover/Focus over the element set as the appearance style of the Smart Tip.your title goes here
With the Multi-element Selection mode enabled, whenever a content creator selects an element on a page, the Studio automatically highlights similar elements that are present on the page. Content creators can then confirm the selection and proceed to create content for the selected elements.
Here’s a GIF of how Multi-element Selection works.
Use the following steps to use Multi-element Selection on your application:
Navigate to the application where you want to create content, and then launch the Whatfix Studio.
Select the type of content (Flows or Smart Tips) you want to create.
To enable Multi-element Selection mode, press Shift + S on your keyboard while selecting the element.
Once the Multi-element Selection mode is enabled, select the desired element.

On selecting an element, if you notice that Whatfix is not highlighting any elements or highlighting the wrong elements, then click any other element that you think is similar. This provides Whatfix with more data on what should be considered similar and improve selection.
Confirm if all your desired elements are selected, and then click Confirm Selection.
Create content by adding relevant information to the tooltip.
Save the created content.
Use Cases
Here are some use cases that are possible using Multi-element selection on-page:
