how do I substitute one colour for another, in every object, of an eps file? [closed]

I have a vector image that I need to edit and I have inkscape. What I want to do is to substitute one set of coulours of the palette by another. For example, my image has a palette with several tones of orange, green and blue. What do I have to do if I want to substitute the orange part of the palette with another color?

How do I change the color of multiple objects in Inkscape?

You can either select each object one by one or you can simply select let say object having red as a fill color and then go to the "EDIT" option and navigate to the "SELECT SAME" and then click on the "FILL COLOR" and that's it you are done.

How do I select all colors in Inkscape?

For example, if you want to select all the blue squares below, first select one of the blue squares, and use Edit ⇒ Select Same ⇒ Fill Color from the menu ( right-click on the canvas). All objects with the same blue fill color are now selected.

Here is one way to select all items of exactly the same colour (fill). It is also possible to look for other style categories, such as the stroke colour etc.

1) Imagine we wish to select all the orange items on the canvas. Select one of those and go to the Fill and Stroke dialog. Copy the colour code from the RGBA field (highlighted red in the image below). enter image description here

2) Open the search dialog (Find) (Ctrl + F) and copy the colour code in the field Style:

3) Get rid of the last two characters of the colour code. Add the line fill:# right before the colour code (also in the Style: field!). Hit the Find button, and all the items filled with the given colour should be selected. enter image description here

4) Change the colours of the selected objects in the Fill and Stroke dialog.
