How to locate position of a topic within DITA Map Manager?

This must be simple, but I cannot find the solution. I can use the Open/Find Resource command to search for a specific topic within my DITA Map. From the search results, I can double-click to open the topic. But I'd like to know where in my map is the topic located. How can I do this?

Hi,

The DITA Maps Manager view has a small toolbar located inside it. One of the toggle buttons there is called "Link with editor". Once selected, the selection in the DITA Maps Manager should always synchronize with the current opened and selected XML document from the main editing area.

Radu

This is a very useful feature. If it is not the default setting to link, I think it should be!

Hi,

The Link with Editor toggle button from the DITA Maps Manager view is selected by default.
