Navigator highlights the current contact sheet
« on: September 06, 2014, 03:13:03 PM »
Is there any way to have the Navigator highlight the current contact sheet when its opened.
This would be a huge timesaver.
Obviously you need the option to be able to add to or change the selection, but if it was the default that would be great
thanks

Hi,
It does highlight the current sheet if it is the most recently opened one.

Yes, until you click on another tab…It would be great if it changed to whatever the current tab is.

I could see adding a menu item "Show Contact Sheet Path in Navigator" on the Contact Sheet tab menu that would appear when a Contact Sheet contained a single path.  But not all Contact Sheets have a single path--there can be many.  Also, I wouldn't want the simple changing of the Contact Sheet tab to force the Navigator to reveal the path.  It may be disruptive and it will certainly slow down the act of switching between Contact Sheet tabs.

Hi,
I myself would not like slowing down the process of switching between contact sheet tabs.

How about making it an option when you right click on a thumbnail (reveal in navigator) ?
