To load all of the displayed files, click on the filename displayed at the end of the list
using the left mouse button, while pressing the Shift key on the keyboard.
To load some files from different parts of the list, select each file while pressing the Ctrl
key on the keyboard.
After selecting the files that you wish to load, click on the Open button to load the files.
By using a wildcard you can easily use the list of filenames.
A wildcard is something that is used as a substitute for matching characters.

and have the extension TIF

If you click on the Open button after entering a filename using a wildcard, a list of
files that match the wildcard will appear.
