Why is it such a chore to color grouped objects? Come on man, this is annoying.

[djohanj18230897]

Why do you make changing colors in groups so troublesome? Why cant i just click a group and change its colors? Please stop this object appearance, layers nonsense and keep it simple.

Come on man, that on top of your inaccurate guides. This is really infuriating.

Thank you for you response, I tried this and pressing shift applies the fill color to the stroke of the elements inside the group, leaving the origina color untouched

Then just focus the fill before picking up the color.

Nice!!!!!! thank you!!! 

[Rafael Rosas298409985taa]

One last question Though, How can I change all the attributes? is it possible to apply them all at once? fill and stroke... 

[Monika Gause · Accepted solution]

It now depends on how you usually want the eyedropper tool to work. If you only use it for coloring in group and only rarely if ever pick up appearances (like: brushes, effects, whatever), then you can set up the eyedropper options like this and then when picking up colors from another object, you don't even need to press Shift.

Thank you I appreciate your help. That exactly was I needed to know.

Glad you could solve it!

I'm having this problem right now. Really annoying.  Should be one click.

Press the shift key while picking up the color is just one click.

It was one click for several decades, and then they decided to change it.
Bye for now,
