Hello,

I'm using Affinity Designer for Windows. I've created a diagram. It's somewhat complex and has several small rectangles that are colour-coded. I've just realized that I've colour-coded some of them incorrectly. So now I have a page full of small rectangles of various colours, and I need to change all the red rectangles to blue rectangles. Is there some kind of "colour swap" feature where I can tell Affinity to take all the red rectangles on a page and change them to blue, without affecting any of the other colours that are on the page? I'd really rather not have to spend hours individually changing each red rectangle to blue.

If they would be all symbols or in a group/montage it would be easy, then you only need to change the symbols or group/montage color for those rects. AFAIK there isn't such a find and swap color feature.

Other than that, if you can export the whole to let's say SVG and then open that SVG file inside an editor as a text file, you can use some reg expression in order to find/replace for changing those rect SVG color values, save the modified SVG text file and afterwards reopen the edited SVG again in AD.
