Locate a component by its reference on PCB - possible ?

Hello,

Locate a component on PCB (with zoom on it) by its refernce on is very useful function, especially on complex PCBs with thousands nets/components. But it seems that this feature is missed in OrCAD Allegro (or it's hiden by some sophisticated interface).

When I specify the component reference in the Find by Name entry (please, see the picture in attachment), nothing happens !

Moreover, when I move cursor out, the entered text disappears !!!

Is it bug, or I missed something ?

Thanks in advance.

Pavel.

When I select find, symbols, find by name, r111 (example).
It zooms into the area and highlights the symbol and reference desiginator.
