Maybe I was dreaming or thinking of another CAD program I use. Don't we have the ability to locate something in plan, I.E. it highlights the object/item,  Perhaps a "find" tool? I'm not referring to when you select an item it shows what layer it's on.  Thanks

Doug,

 

This tool is listed in the response Chris posted and it is the tool I use when looking for something in plan.  Maybe this is what you were thinking of?  

  • Click on an item in the schedule.  "Find in Plan" tool is highlighted.
  • Click on the "Find in Plan" tool and your item is highlighted in the plan.

Ah Yes, Thank you Susan...that's it!  I new I wasn't going nuts.  Tonight perhaps I will get some sleep.  It's like you know one's name and cant' think of it till you've left the party.

Thanks again,

Doug
