Abstract
Methods and systems for selecting multiple entities of a model or models to set or change data of the multiple entities together in a modeling environment are disclosed. When users create or edit a model or models, information on the entities of the model or models is provided to the users so that the users can select multiple entities in the model or models. On the selection of the multiple entities in the model or models, the modeling environment dynamically generates a user interface for the selected entities of the model or models for displaying, setting or changing data of the selected entities together. The user interface may display data of the selected entities that is not common to all of the selected entities in a different manner so that the users can identify common data of the selected entities.
