Select same doesn't select the same objects > it also selects objects that do not conform to the selection rule

The select same command does not select the same strokes for me:

 

The colours of the pink and purple are completely different when selecting the same fill and stroke colour.
This is also the case when selecting by stroke colour:

 

Now I finally understand why this selection method wasn't working the way I wanted too, it's just completely broken in 2.0.3. Windows 22H2.

 

 

Although it's a known issue (by design) that Designer also selects hidden and locked layers, see:

I know I also filed a bug report for this in the past in the past, but cannot find it through the forum search. But please, restrict selections with select > same to only visible, unlocked layers. Please.

And another one, this time around, the fill colour is the same, though opacity is different.

If the color is the same, didn't it make the selection you asked for?

I asked it to do fill and stroke colour, did I click the other one in the video? The colour for the stroke is different as one of the objects doesn't have a stroke coliur assigned, the fill differs opacity wise, but apart from that it is the same colour.

It's hard to follow your video. Selecting one that doesn't have a stroke color would be wrong, but you focused in your description on opacity. That made it seem like you thought that opacity should play a factor in the selection.

Hi Intous5,

I've had our QA team look into this alongside myself and we are struggling to recreate this issue in our 2.0.4 version. Please could you check if this bug still occurs and if it does could you provide a sample file with steps we can follow to recreate this issue?

Thanks
C

Please tag me using @ in your reply so I can be sure to respond ASAP.

Hi @Callum,

I am still able to reproduce this bug in one of the files in which it occurred earlier. Could you send me a dropbox link, so I can upload the file?

 

By the way, has the behaviour of locks changed? I can no longer select locked items :D

Though, Select Same still selects locked items. :/
