Select every layer at once (ctrl-a not sufficient)

[Karle]

Hi All,

Is there a way to select all layers at once?

Unfortunately I forgot to set "Scale with object" on my stroke settings.  I now have 100s of layers which cannot be scaled properly. 

- If I use ctrl-a it only selects the top level groups

- If I shift select in the layers panel, it will only select multiple items from the same level in the hierachy

Thanks,

Karle

Thanks for that, unfortunately due to the way your file is laid out - with grouped objects and nested layers - there's no option to select 'all vector objects' and apply a global change to them - and as you've mentioned you can't shift-click or select all for this reason.

This does mean that AFAIK the only way to apply these changes is on a curve-by-curve basis - this also applies to any fx applied to the layer, there is a scale option in the bottom left hand side of the fx panel. My apologies that I can't provide an easier answer here!

Thanks for checking At least I know now for the future.

Fortunately this is just some early mock-up work.  I exported them as images and then scaled the images.
