I cannot do a simple operation. I create a hierarchical sheet and I import some hierarchical labels.
But sometimes I need to move some of them. I only can move/grab only one at time. If I select multiple of them with the mouse also the sheet will be selected.
How to select/move/grab the hierarchical labels only?
There is no option to move multiple hierarchical sheet pins at once within KiCad version 5.
Got it. Out of curiosity, how the developers think one can re-arrange dozens of pins? 
Using MCUs it’s easy to end up with a lot of pins, and it’s hard to know in advance the exact position to place them.
The developers know the way object selection and moving works in Eeschema V5 and earlier is limiting, which is why it will be changed for the next version (this is already changed in nightlies)
I personally don’t use the name of the MCU pin as the hierarchical label but its abstract description. So if i have an SPI then the hierarchical pins are called MOSI, MISO, SCLK and NCS. If i then need to change the assignment i change it on the inside. The outside does not need to know what exact pin is used (principle of knowledge domain separation)
This means i should not really need to move hierarchical pins. (Similar to software design the first thing i define is the abstract interface. And that is only changed if requirements change.)
