Starcraft – Selecting every single unit from a certain type in StarCraft 2

starcraft-2

When I play StarCraft I want to select every single unit from a certain group( all lings, all hydras etc.), but without doing Ctrl + double click because it will select the one on the screen. I also don't want to assign an army to a number and then click twice in the HUD, because it will select the one from the number, not all existing of that type.

The only thing that comes to my mind is F2 and then double click the unit in the HUD.

Is there a faster way?

To expand on alicsharp's answer:

You can press the all-army hotkey (F2 by default), then CTRL+Click on the any unit of the type you want to select in the command card at the bottom. If you are using Mac, and you've set the setting that makes CMD act as CTRL, say, for setting command groups, then instead of CTRL+Click, you should use CMD+Click.
