# Pick and select GameObjects in the Scene view

> Select single or multiple GameObjects, and use selection filtering and keyboard modifiers.

You can select GameObjects in the Scene view to edit their [Transform values](/engine/6000.5/manual/working-with-gameobjects/gameobject-fundamentals/class-transform.md), add [Components](/engine/6000.5/manual/working-with-gameobjects/unity-components/using-components.md), and more. Use the Scene picking controls to restrict some GameObjects from being selected while you work in the Scene view.
