Mouse modifier keys:

Note that in MoI you do not need to hold down Shift to do multiple select, multiple selection is enabled just by default on regular clicks. You can deselect an already selected curve or face by clicking on it a second time, again no shift or control key is necessary for the regular case.

Ctrl+Drag can be used to duplicate an object, it will drag off a copy of the object.

Shift+Ctrl+Drag can be used to force a window selection. This can be helpful if your view is very full of stuff and you don't have an easily accessible empty area on the screen to click on which is the regular way to do a window selection.

Ctrl+click can be used for a "prefer deselection" mode, which will deselect a brep on a single click rather than drilling in, and will make a preference for targeting already selected curves in a dense scene, making it a bit easier to deselect things in some cases. (v2 only)

The normal way to manipulate the view in MoI with the mouse is to use Right click for Rotate, Middle click for Pan, and the scroll wheel for zooming. But there are several alternative methods available for compatibility with a variety of other apps:

Alt + Left drag = Rotate
Alt + Shift + Left drag = Pan
Alt + Ctrl + Left drag up and down = Zoom
Ctrl + Right drag up and down = Zoom
Alt + Right drag up and down = Zoom
Shift + Right drag = Pan
