Free Physical Viewer 16.2 - Find Comp functionality

ALawrence

I recently upgraded my free physical viewer from 16.0 to 16.2, and have found that when I use the 'Find By Name' functionality, a successful hit on a component no longer causes the viewer to zoom in tight to the part location - it sometimes doesn't zoom at all any more, making it hard to pick out the target part. Are there any settings to get this functionality back?

    What command are you in when you enter the Ref Des in the "Find By Name" field?

    I can open up a design in the Allegro Physical Viewer 16.2, go into Show Element (Display > Element), on the Find Filter enter the Ref Des in the Find by Name field with "Comp (Pin)" selected and it centers the display on the component.  I have no special settings and nothing defined in my ENV file so there is nothing that is driving it to work this way for me.  Maybe I am missing something.
