I have over 100 objects of two types (paths, compound paths). I want to filter these objects into separate layers based on fill color. Note, there are only three different fill colors being used in the entire art board.

Is this even possible? If not, are there any alternatives? Doing this manually would be long and grueling.

Illustrator has some tools available already to select the same object based on X quality.



Note the shortcut seen is one I assigned to it.

So to filter the objects you can select one, select Same > Fill Color and then Ctrl+X to cut them and Ctrl+Shift+V to paste them in place on a new layer.
