1.

Select Shuffle Mode, if it's not already selected.

2.

To shuffle more than one Index Card, make sure the first card is displayed onscreen.

3.

Hold down the SHIFT key.  Using the mouse, click anywhere on the Index Card you want to move.  The card turns a darker gray, and the cursor changes to the Shuffle Cursor—a hand holding a card.

4.

Still holding down the SHIFT key, click on the other cards you want to shuffle. If you inadvertently select a card that you didn't want to, click on it again while still holding down the SHIFT key and it becomes unselected.

5.

Go to the Index Card you want to move your cards in front of using the Scroll buttons if necessary.  Click on that card, and your shuffled Index Cards is inserted in front of it.  All other cards shuffle accordingly.

The shuffled cards are inserted in the same order they were selected.  For example, if you select card 5, then card 12, then card 8—and insert them before card 3—the new shuffled order will be:  cards 1, 2, 5, 12, 8, and then 3, 4, etc.
