How to select and apply changes to a component and its children in editor

How do you guys select and make changes to a component and its children?

For example, if we want to change the mobility or visibility of a component. Short of manually selecting the component and its children, is there a shortcut to select them? Manually selecting it is insane when there are many children.

There does not seem to be way to select decendants in the blueprint window. And this does not work in the Details panel either.

And having to resort to blueprint scripting to make changes? That cant seriously be the only way

To select a component and its children in a blueprint editor, look for options like ‘Select All Descendants’ or use filtering to target specific types. If unavailable, consider grouping components or using find-and-replace functions for batch editing properties.

Is there any reason why “Select All Descendants” would not work? Because its not working for me
