When having 2 projects with similar content open at same time, left pane is not updating correctly when setting the other project active.
Pages, search and more.

I don't think the Find&Replace panel content is remembered if you switch documents.

Pages should be, though. Have you actually done anything in that document after switching to its tab (that is, have you clicked in the window yet, or clicked in a panel, or zoomed in/out)? Perhaps you need to do something to interact with the document before things update? (That still feels wrong; I'm just suggesting this as a possible workaround for you. I don't think I've ever noticed this myself.)

What OS and what release of Publisher are you using?

It's remembered. But it takes flicking back and forth between items or pages to have it update.

Win 11, Pub 2.3

Is it possible for you to make a screen recording of this issue as I have not been able to replicate this on my PC

I'm a little busy right now. I'll come back to it when I remember it.

How to replicate:

Make to identical projects, 2 pages, item1 on page 1, item 2 on page 2

Project 1: Search "item", select item 1

Project 2 Search "item", select item 2

Select project 1. Item 2 is now selected (wrong)
