I want to highlight a symbol in eechema when i chose the symbol by mouse like pads, i searched by net, but i still could not found a config option to do this ? is kciad V5.1.6 can support this ? or has supported?
e, and i tried some other kicad-color-schemems like default , behave-dark, monokai both failed.

This is in development and will be part of KiCad at 6. You can try it out in the nightly 5.99 version BUT this is not suitable for production use and may be unstable.

In 5.1.6 it’s possible to click on a symbol in eeschema and the corresponding footprint is selected in pcbnew. Or select a footprint in pcbnew and the corresponding symbol is highlighted in eeschema. More advanced cross-probing capabilities are in 5.99.
