Hello!

 

I really need some help. I updated my adobe illustrator and now the recolor tool is not working for any of my patterns. I open the tool and click a new swatch group but the colors on the actual pattern dont change. Can someone help me with this please? I need to recolor my artwork asap for a project! Thanks!

Can you turn on the checkbox "Recolor art" in the bottom left?

So you applied the pattern to an object and then opened Recolor art?

Can you please show a screenshot of your original pattern and then Recolor art interface?
