With an object selected in the 3D View you can use the buttons to the right to select similar objects. Some of the buttons in this menu react to whether the objects in your model are instances. An instance is a copy of another object. These buttons are useful ways of finding objects that are copies of another.

The All Instance button selects all objects sharing an instance with your current selection in your entire project.
