You can select all groups in Illustrator using the Select All command (Ctrl+A on Windows or Command+A on Mac). This will select all objects on the artboard, including any grouped objects.
To select only the groups, you can use the following methods:
- Using the Selection Tool:
- Select the Selection Tool (black arrow).
- Click on the Group Selection button in the Control Panel or the Properties Panel.
- Click on any group to select it.
- Using the Direct Selection Tool:
- Select the Direct Selection Tool (white arrow).
- Press and hold Shift and click on any grouped object. This will select all groups containing that object.
- Using the Object > Group Selection Command:
- Go to Object > Group Selection.
- Choose Select All Groups.
Remember that selecting groups can be helpful for tasks like moving, resizing, or applying effects to multiple objects at once.
