Zoom in to the probed net in schematic

Hi,

Is there way to zoom in to the probed net in schematic? I am tracing net from lower level cells to all the way to top level schematics. At many intermediate cell levels in hierarchy, the net is connected just by name hence net has very small length in schematic. so it become very difficult to spot the net.

Thanks

    Yes. I am calling abZoomProbes() but this procedure call abZoomSel() in the end.

    geGetAllProbe()~>objectId~>objType return ("net")
    geGetAllProbe()~>objectId~>cellView return (db:0x61790e1a)
    geGetEditCellView() returns db:0x4e87239a
    getVersion(t) returns sub-version  ICADV12.3-64b.500.10

    Zooming probes work at the hierarchical level where net is actually probed. Once you come up the hierarchy, zooming around probe doesn't work. and I get error message.
