DCode tool highlightning

Layout Gerbers (GerbView)
1

According to the documentation, selecting a tool in the D Code drop list should highlight items of selected D Code. It doesn’t seem to work for me. Are here special options to be considered ?

I don’t find anything else to consider. It seems to be buggy. I also had to select an empty layer and go back to the copper layer to see the DCode dropdown list items at all, otherwise it was empty.

5.1.2, Windows 7.

Thanks @eelik - I intend to report it as a bug.

I also noticed the “sync” issue between the drop list and the active layer. I guess it has to be reported as well.
