Auto-arrange only selected items?

I'm starting to do long prints with large numbers of parts. I often want to auto-arrange only a few of the parts on the bed. I thought I read of a recent feature addition that would allow selection of a subset of the total parts and only arrange those, but I can't find any details. Anybody know of a way to do this?

Apparently the magic sauce is the keyboard shortcut [shift] + A. See the Plicer 2.1 announcement video at 3:41 (this link should start you there):

That link should have started at the 3:41 time-stamp, but the forum's you tube embedding seems to strip the custom start point. Just scroll to 3:41 if you don't want to watch the first part.

Perfect, thanks! Surprised that the hotkeys work but there aren't corresponding menu entries. Something to look for in a future release.
