When selecting a symbol in the Plot, its structure doesn't highlight in the Symbol Tree. Why not?

Another thought - when selecting multiple symbols in a drawing, could the Symbol Tree highlight the selected items, as I sometimes find it awkward to follow many selection anchors on the drawing sheet?

Could you then select multiple symbols by clicking within the Symbol Tree instead of the drawing?

Cheers Rob

It would be a useful way of quickly finding items on large drawing.

Hi Tim,

Yes, it looks like changes to the selection in the Symbol Tree refresh the Plot/Report windows, but not vice versa. 

We'll log this as a bug - thanks for alerting us.

Kind regards,

Help says: "If you highlight a symbol name in the Symbol Tree sub-window, that symbol will be highlighted in the Plot and Report windows, (this bit works). Similarly if you select a symbol in the Plot or Report windows, its structure will be highlighted in the Symbol Tree sub-window (this bit doesn't). This is indicated with a yellow arrow."

Any ideas?
