Simulink: Ctrl-click does not link two blocks.

From documentation:

https://www.mathworks.com/help/simulink/ug/summary-of-mouse-and-keyboard-actions.html

"Click a port. Click the blue chevron symbol that appears near a compatible port you want to connect to.

Select the first block, then Ctrl + click a second block.

Drag from port to port.

Click a port and hold Shift as you connect to the next port. Hold Shift to make multiple, consecutive connections."

Unfortunately, selecting a block and then CTRL selecting another block does not automatically connect them. Is this a bug? Or is there a setting I need to enable?

Try this

Drop a Bus Selector block (it has two outputs) and a XY Graph block (it has two inputs).

single click the Bus Selector block, it becomes highlighted.

While pressing the Ctrl key, single click the XY Graph block,

Two lines are connected instantly

I cannot explain why this is working now, and not before. But thank you!
