Hi everybody.

i recieved a illustrator file with thousands of layers/sublayers, one of them is locked, and illustrator don't let me replace a font because says that "layer is locked".

there is a command to unlock all layers?

or to force a replace font without unlocking?

Thanks

Correct answer

After some research I managed recently this :

First you have to show all objects : Main menu Objects > Show all (alt+ctrl+3)
Then create a top level layer, and drop all your others top layers inside, and proceed as Larry G. Schneider said...

Thanks for this - also had the same issue. Nothing was locked on any of the layers but when I went to Objects > Show all a couple of elements appeared on the artboard. Deleted those and the 'missing font' issue is no longer there! Thanks again
