How to select multiple clips that are not next to each other?

[p8guitar]

I'd expect that you could select multiple clips that are not next to each other in the arrangement or session view by clicking with the mouse and holding the 'command' or 'shift' modifier (using Mac OS 12.7). This doesn't work, all clips that lie in between are selected, too. This is very annoying...

I'd like to add a screenshot, but the picture on my one drive cannot be shown here apparently:

You cannot do that. You can only select a continuous time region.

It's hard to believe, but I'm afraid you are right. That is really disappointing. How can it be that this doesn't bother anyone else? I suppose the Ableton guys are using the software themselves and should be run into this problem long ago.

Oh, but it does bother many. You are not the first and will not be the last to address this.
