Is there a way to explicitly select all the objects present at a particular instance of time. This can be easily done using mouse to select all. Is there a code-solution like a button named Select All so that clicking it would make all the fabric type objects being selected and then I could apply the changes to whole of that ActiveGroup using canvas.getActiveGroup(); and iterate over.

Using the current version of fabric.js (2.3.1) you can do this:

canvas.discardActiveObject();
var sel = new fabric.ActiveSelection(canvas.getObjects(), {
  canvas: canvas,
});
canvas.setActiveObject(sel);
canvas.requestRenderAll();

This is an quote from the demo page: http://fabricjs.com/manage-selection
