Expand and locate the element in outliner

Hi,
When an element is selected in the outliner, it will highlight the complete tag in the editor.

But if a line is selected in the code and that part is not yet expanded in the outliner, it does not expand.

Can a feature be provided such that we select the line in the editor and that element is located and selected in the tree outliner? This would be quite useful as otherwise, we have to manually locate the item on the outline. This will help in keeping the outline and the editor synchronized.

Thanks
Srikanth

Hi,

In the outliner view there is a button in the top-right part that selects the "selection update on caret move" option. If you press that button and enable this option then the outliner will automatically show the element that contains the caret.

Best Regards,
George
P.S. This option was added in oXygen 4.0.
