    For many problems there are simple and easy-to-understand solutions that do not work.

    I agree.

    I would select all Used Colours in the Name galley. Cut those. Delete the remaining ones and Paste in Place.

    One more, if you don't have too many objects. Select any object then press the Tab key to cycle through/select all objects on the page.

    Ism't this assuming there were colors or lines applied in the first place? Yes you can apply lines and colors then clear both is that what is being asked or am I misunderstanding?

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    Sometimes we set No Fill and No line width - on purpose or by accident.

    Trying to findi a No Fill shape is awkward.
    The Name gallery lists all Used colours but does not have an entry for No Fill.
    You cannot set a Theme Colour to No Fill in creation or amendment.

    For shapes that have No Fill or Line width, I always add Line width of 0. This is not the same as None as on the design 0 is always 0pt regardless of scale and it never displays on publish.
    You can then "find" and select them.

    That's for sure.
