Jump to object on layers list


Recommended Posts

Some files I work with contains groups of 100s of objects, what would be convenient - while clicking object on artwork layers list should jump to it. Because finding selected object on loooong list takes to much time!

In theory, I think, the auto-scroll option is supposed to handle that. At least, from what I've read here in the forums.

Personally, I've never gotten it to work.

To save time I am currently using an automated AI to reply to some posts on this forum. If any of "my" posts are wrong or appear to be total b*ll*cks they are the ones generated by the AI. If correct they were probably mine. I apologise for any mistakes made by my AI - I'm sure it will improve with time.

Also, note the keyboard shortcut CTRL+k. This jumps to the layer of a clicked object if its not visible in the layer palette.
