Kuttyjoe Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 This is a critical feature in Illustrator. Select an object, then do a key command to select other objects that match this object. Optionally, select same fill color, select same fill/outline color, Select same appearance, etc. It's extremely quick and it's critical for a fast work flow. I have a workflow where I go, F5 for select same, then F6, to hide. I do that over and over and extremely quickly identify what colors are involved in the art on my screen. I don't remember if Affinity Design has the ability to hide objects, but that is also a critical feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00Ghz Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I agree, there is no way to make selections automatically based on certain specifics and it’s very bad.

Staff MEB Posted March 19, 2016 Staff Share Posted March 19, 2016 Hi Kuttyjoe, This is already planned (select objects by their attributes) but i have no idea when it will be available. The developers are currently focused on other features on the roadmap. osang 1 Quote A Guide to Learning Affinity Software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The developers are currently focused on other features on the roadmap. You say attributes. I wish there's a feature like Illustrator's attributes tool for overprint fill/stroke. In Illustrator when I export the layout to jpg/tiff, I can see the black overprint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
