FORMS & WIDGETS - Multiple-select forms

Multiple select forms should be used when the user needs to select multiple items for use in a subsequent step. It is important in a multiple-select form that selected items remain visible to the user.

If possible avoid forcing the user to “control-click” in order to select multiple items.

Try to ensure that if the user selects multiple items they don’t’ have to scroll in order to see all selected items.
