Exporting Selected Features from Multiple Layers

Question

Hello,

I am new to the Arcmap world, adding knowledge to my resume.  One task that I feel should be even more simple than it could be is exporting .shp files.  In my attachment i am showing that i have multiple features selected that are all on different layers.  I cannot find a batch export.  All i can do is select the all the features i want and then one by one export them by right clicking the layer it resides in and exporting data.  But i have to do this one layer by layer.  Please tell me there is a faster way or more efficient way of exporting multiple features all from different layers. A batch export of selected features would be great.

Thanks in advance!

OK, thanks.  That is too bad.  I'm coming from Civil 3D which typically there was a shortcut for everything.  I say, if you can select them all, you should be able to export them all at the same time as well..That would be helpful for those who want ArcMap to talk to Autodesk products.  Thanks again for your input, it is appreciated.

I hear you...

It can be done but you will need to develop a custom GP tool or model to do that. Unfortunately there is no out of the box way other than right clicking on each sub-layer.
