Adobe Illustrator CS3 Tip – Reapplying a Selection Command
I just made a selection in a complex design, by first selecting an object Filled with a certain color and going to the Select menu>Same>Fill.
All objects that share that same Fill color with the original are now selected. I change the Fill color of all these selected objects, and click another object in my design.
Is there a quick way to reapply this same selection command using my newly selected object without another visit to the Select menu. Yes! Simply press Command+6 (Control+6 on PC) and the last selection command will be repeated using the currently selected object. So all objects that share the same Fill color with the newly selected object will be selected in an instant.
