Have you ever been working in Adobe Illustrator and had an artboard full of many different objects or a very complex design but wanted to select one type or group of objects, and for example, want to change their color? You could manually try to go in and ungroup objects and ‘Shift + Click’ them and then apply that color change, but that would be very time consuming and you could miss some of the objects you wanted to change.

The solution? Well it is very simple in Adobe Illustrator, to select all the objects you want, just select one of them with the attribute (Fill Color of black for example) you want, choose from the Select Menu: Select > Same, and then from the drop down options choose an attribute from the list (Blending Mode, Fill & Stroke, Fill Color, Opacity etc). This will then select all the objects with the same attribute like a Fill color of black. Be sure when using this method to select an attribute that is unique to the types of objects you want to change.
