    Dear users,


    Can you please let us know what is that you cannot do with the existing 'save selection' functionality that you expect to do by grouping objects from different layers?


    'Save selection' enables you to combine objects from different layers without having to bring them into one single layer.


    To use 'save selection' just select your desired objects and save the selection from the select > save selection menu command or from the bottom of the layers panel.

    Linking objects needs to work exactly like it does in Photoshop. I've been away from Illustrator for a while but I'm shocked that the current version does not have this feature. Is this a Mandela effect type thing? I swear to God linking used to be a thing prior to CC.
