Select all : CTRL + A Not working in edit mode

Post by Komerad »

I want to change the color of all text.
I am in editing modus (text).
CTRL+A does nothing.

How do I select all text while in editor mode so i can change the color at once?

Hello Komerad,

Please try these steps.

1) Ensure that you have indeed selected the "Edit content" tool, and that text selection only is active:

2) Right Click any of the outlined text objects, and go to "Select All":

3) In the properties pane you can now change the text colour and this will have effed on all of the text in your file:

And this is my result after selecting dark green colour after the above shot:

Kind regards,
