MikeW Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 You can convert text to curves at pdf export if you also want to maintain editability if desired. That is, if you are nor also needing to manipulate the resulting curves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverback Posted August 8, 2017 Author Share Posted August 8, 2017 not working I mean, select all text layer and then outline them Quote Little Designer My web site:http://www.ooioo.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toltec Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 By outline, do you mean apply a stroke, or convert to curves ? Select the text you want by pressing Ctrl A or click on the text layer. If you want to apply a stroke, just apply a stroke using the Stroke option on the context menu. (it's at the far right, you might have to click on the "fast forward" arrow to find it) To convert to curves. Just go Layer > Convert to Curves. You will end up with a curve for EVERY letter, in a group layer. Quote Windows PCs. Photo and Designer, latest non-beta versions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
verysame Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 The OP is asking for a solution in order to select all the text objects on a page at once, basically a sort of filter which is convenient when you have a lot of elements and text and maybe some of them even overlapping. The answer is, there's nothing like that in AD yet. Something is planned for a future release like select by same color, same stroke and so on, not sure about text objects though, I don't remember if that's planned as well.

ajpearceUK Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 Please update me if this will be available in Designer. If it won't ever be available in Designer, is it available in Publisher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomaso Posted July 18, 2020 Share Posted July 18, 2020 > Please update me if this will be available in Designer. I am sure it will be mentioned in the change list of an update once the feature got implemented. If you follow a desired topic you will be informed as usual.https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/71071-latest-affinity-releases-on-each-platform-by-store/ > is it available in Publisher? Not yet, too. But in case of APub you currently have a little advantage for linked text frames, placed either on one or on various pages, that enables you to select all their text with 1 click.

Notes Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 Hello, is the select all text feature available in V2? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarryP Posted November 2, 2023 Share Posted November 2, 2023 (edited) 9 hours ago, Notes said: Hello, is the select all text feature available in V2? That is dependent upon what you mean by “the select all text feature”. There are various similar but different things discussed in this thread. If you can better specify what you want to select then we can tell you if the functionality exists. In the meantime, you can, in V2, for example, select all Frame Text layers in the document by choosing menu “Select → Select Object → Frame Text” – see attached image.
