    Hello!

    I know how to edit one column as image below (ALT+left mouse button):

    Is it possible to edit more columns at one time?
    I edited above image to show what I mean:

    Using CTRL(multiselection)+ALT+left mouse button doesn’t work - when I try to do it I lose first selected column.

      To the best of my knowledge, there is no way to multi-select columns.

      You can column select the first column, then individually multi-select (Ctrl+click) each additional position (so your example would require one Alt-drag and five Ctrl+clicks). (The first Ctrl+click will change the selection from a column selection to a multiple selection. Depending on what you want to do next, that might make no difference to you at all or it might cause some unexpected results.)
