Selecting layers quickly in Illustrator

- Hello, and welcome back to another installment…of Creative Quick Tips.…My name is Justin Seeley,…and this week in the Weekly Series,…what we're going to be talking about…is Adobe Illustrator.…And, specifically, how to get faster…when you're selecting different portions…of your designs.…So, this is a website mock-up…that I've been working on inside of Illustrator,…and let's say that the client just wants to see…a piece of this particular design.…And, in order to do that,…I need to take several aspects of that section of the design…and paste them into a new document.…Most of the time,…people would just come out,…and they would start selecting objects on the screen…just by holding down the "shift" key, like this...…
