select similar objects

[FabriceC]

Hello, and sorry if the question have been asked before, but I would like to know if there is a function that would select automatically the "similar objects" according to stroke color, fill color, and other parameters.

I used this function before in illustrator (Unfortunately, I no longer have it to check) and it was very useful, particularly when you have tones of layers.

One of the top reason I may use it is when I am trying to select die-cuts marks on small objects (think small stickers scattered on a big sheet of paper and needed to be cut with let's a say a plotter)

We use the same artwork to print the packaging and in that case, I need to get rid of the die-cut marks (they are all with the same stroke color). The way I was doing in Illustrator was to select one die cut and "auto-select" all the others based on the reference selected stroke color.

If it doesn't exist yet, I'd raise my voice for a feature request

Hello @FabriceC,

a function to select similar objects to the one that is selected and another function to select objects of a certain type (text, shapes, symbols and many more) is currently in the beta version. In other words it will be part of the next release version.
