To organize and lay out your artwork, you use tools for selecting, positioning, and stacking objects precisely. You can measure and align objects; group objects so that they are treated as a single unit; and selectively isolate, lock, or hide objects. Before you can modify an object, you must distinguish it from the objects around it.

You do that by selecting the object. Layers panel. Lets you quickly and precisely select individual or multiple objects. Selection tool. Lets you select objects and groups by clicking or dragging over them. You can also select groups within groups and objects within groups.

Group Selection tool. Lets you select an object within a group, a single group within multiple groups, or a set of groups within the artwork. Each additional click adds all objects from the next group in the hierarchy. Perspective Selection tool. Lets you bring objects and text in perspective, switch active planes, move objects in perspective, and move objects in perpendicular direction. Lets you select objects, anchor points, or path segments by dragging around all or part of the object.

Magic Wand tool. Lets you select objects of the same color, stroke weight, stroke color, opacity, or blending mode by clicking the object. Live Paint Selection tool. Lets you select faces areas enclosed by paths and edges portions of paths between intersections of Live Paint groups.

Selection commands. You can select all objects of a specific type or that share specific attributes, and save or load selections. You can also select all objects in the active artboard. Selecting paths and points in complex images can be challenging. Using the Selection and Anchor Display preferences, you can specify the tolerance for pixel selection and choose other options that can make selection easier for a particular document.

Specifies the pixel range for selecting anchor points. Higher values increase the width of the area around an anchor point that you can click to select it.

Object Selection By Path Only. Specifies whether you can select a filled object by clicking anywhere in the object or whether you have to click a path. Snap To Point.

Snaps objects to anchor points and guides. Specify the distance between the object and anchor point or guide when the snap occurs. Isolation mode isolates objects so that you can easily select and edit particular objects or parts of objects. You can isolate any of the following: layers, sublayers, groups, symbols, clipping masks, compound paths, gradient meshes, and paths.

In Isolation mode, you can delete, replace, and add new art relative to the isolated art. When you exit isolation mode, replaced or new art is added at the same location as the original isolated art. See Edit or redefine a symbol. When isolation mode is active, the isolated object appears in full color, while the rest of the artwork appears grayed out. When you exit isolation mode, the other layers and groups reappear in the Layers panel.

See the video Use isolation mode to isolate artwork for editing. Select the group, object, or path and click the Isolate Selected Object button in the Control panel.

Select the group, object, or path in the Layers panel and choose Enter Isolation Mode from the Layers panel menu or click the Isolate Selected Object button in the Control panel. Select the path by using the Direct-Selection tool or by targeting it in the Layers panel.

Click the Isolate Selected Object button in the Control panel. Select the layer or sublayer in the Layers panel, and click Enter Isolation Mode from the Layers panel menu.

Click Exit Isolation Mode in the Control panel. You can select an object above or below a selected object in the stacking order. These commands do not work when in isolation mode. In the Layers panel, locate the object you want to select.

You may have to click a toggle arrow to expand a layer or group, or scroll up or down in the panel to locate the object. Shift-click to add or to remove objects from the selection. Select the Selection tool. To add or remove objects from the selection, hold down Shift and click or drag around the objects you want to add or remove.

Tip : When the Selection tool is over a deselected object or group, it changes to. When it is over a selected object or group, the tool changes to. When it is over an anchor point on a deselected object, a hollow square appears next to the arrow. Select the Lasso tool. Use the Magic Wand tool to select all objects in a document with the same or similar fill attributes such as color and pattern.

You can customize the Magic Wand tool to select objects based on stroke weight, stroke color, opacity, or blending mode. You can also change the tolerances used by the Magic Wand tool to identify similar objects. Select the Magic Wand tool. To create a selection, click the object containing the attributes you want to select.

All objects with the same attributes that were clicked are selected. To add to the current selection, press Shift and click another object containing the attributes you want to add.

All objects with the same attributes that were clicked are also selected. To subtract from the current selection, press Alt Windows or Option macOS and click the object containing the attributes you want to subtract.

All objects with the same attributes are removed from the selection. Low tolerance values select objects that are similar to the object you click; higher tolerance values select objects with a broader range of the selected property. To select objects according to their stroke weight, select Stroke Weight , and then enter a Tolerance value from 0 through points. By default, this preference is off. Sometimes, you may want to turn on the preference—for example, when you work with overlapping filled objects and you want to easily select underlying objects.

The Object Selection By Path Only preference is not applicable when selecting unfilled objects or when viewing artwork as outlines. See View artwork as outlines.

Once objects are grouped, selecting any part of the group with the Selection tool or the Lasso tool selects the entire group. If you are unsure whether an object is a part of a group, select it with the Selection tool. The Direct-Selection tool and Lasso tool let you select a single path or object that is part of one group or several groups. If you have groups of objects within other groups, you can select the next group in the grouping hierarchy by using the Group-Selection tool.

Each successive click adds another subset of grouped objects to the selection. Click the Selection tool. To add or remove a group to the selection, hold down Shift while clicking the group to add or remove. Tip : Double-clicking is a handy way to select objects as opposed to faces and edges within a Live Paint group.

Select the Group Selection tool , and click the object. To add or remove an object or group to or from the selection with any selection tool , hold down Shift and select the object to add or remove. The object is selected. Click the same object again to select more groups that are grouped with the selected group until you have selected everything you want to include in your selection.

If you want to select the entire Live Paint group, simply click it with the Selection tool. Select the Live Paint Selection tool. Move the tool over the Live Paint group until the face or edge you want to select is highlighted.

When the Live Paint Selection tool is over an edge, the tool changes to. Drag a marquee around multiple faces or edges. Any face or edge that is fully or partially enclosed by the marquee is included in the selection.

Tip : If you have difficulty selecting a small face or edge, magnify the view or set the Live Paint Selection tool options to select only fills or strokes. Select Fills. Select Strokes. Sets the color for the highlight.

You can choose a color from the menu or click the paint swatch to specify a custom color. You can select objects based on various groupings, including by formatting attribute, by layer, or by kind, such as brush strokes or clipping masks. Link Block Series automatically selects threaded text boxes. You can select one of the text boxes and then use this command to select all the other text boxes linked to that one. For more information, see Threading text between objects.
