ChristiduToit Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 A "Select Same" option (as in Adobe Illustrator) would be incredibly useful in Designer to select objects that share the same appearance. That way a user could select, say, all vector objects that have the same stroke weight, or colour fill, or colour stroke, etc. This would make editing and recolouring complex vector files a lot less taxing and time consuming, and a lot more streamlined. woefi 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello @ChristiduToit, obviously you are not aware of the 16 pages long discussion about this request over at the Affinity Designer forum Don't become frustrated while reading the thread. I'm sure the feature will show up sooner or later, even though there are forumsters who have started to doubt that d.

ChristiduToit Posted August 14, 2019 Author Share Posted August 14, 2019 @dominik Thanks for the heads up! I must admit that I was blissfully unaware of the fact that this has already been discussed in so much detail on here. I don't work in vector 'that' often, so I haven't really noticed the absence of the "Select Same" feature until recently, and I figured I'd drop a post in the forum. Moreover, I didn't realise how much I actually missed having the ability to select objects in this way, it's such a big time saver. I'm sure that it will pop up in a future update - I'm clearly not the only one missing it. dominik 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmlamarre1 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Maybe, we need another thread to get someone's attention. Because, I have used the adobe suite professionally since CS4 (over 10 years) and have been looking for an alternative since subscription started (6 or 7 years now?)... I purchased all of the Affinity products in hopes to replace Adobe (along with Davinci Resolve), but I have yet to be able to do so and "Select Same" is one of the main reasons for Designer.

No. There is already more than one thread about this. The developer is currently working on this feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
