Hey there, sorry to hear this!

I just tested this capability, and it’s still working as expected. Are you trying to select matching objects in the same frame or across more than one frame or group?

I tried different ways and only work within the same component -variants group I had to create combine as variants first to be able to select similar style, was that always the case?

Hey All, sorry for the continue trouble and confusion!

To help clarify, it’s not possible to multi-select matching layers within the same frame. But this is on our radar for improvement and you can vote for that capability here:

The previous fix mentioned above, was the ability to shift+click to multi-select matching objects across different frames/groups. If you’re still having issues with multi-selection, in this sense, please share a screen recording with us or file a bug report here: https://help.figma.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

If filing a bug report, please use your Figma account email, include a link to the file, and share edit access with support-share@figma.com.

Yep, I’m still hoping they bring it back…
