Force Object Manager to Maintain View When Switching Projects

Hi,

Is there a way to Force Object Manager to Maintain View When Switching Projects?
Currently, when I switch project, the view goes back to the top of the hierarchy.
It might be a small thing (even though I had a shortcut to scroll to active) but on debugging several projects. It takes unnecessary time.

You can see the problem here:

Is there a way around this?

Thank you for looking at my problem

Hi Ben,

I understand that you like to have the “scrolling” position of the Object Manager memorized.

As you have already mentioned it, I think as well as that the method to have the last object-of-interest selected and press the S key in the moment of re-visiting is the only way I’m aware of.

This could be a new feature request.

I assume that you are not looking for a specific object, with that the Bookmark option is not the way to go. I mention it here to be more complete.

Sorry to have no other information.

Cheers

You’re very welcome, Ben, and sorry that this has to be another entry in the suggested feature form.
