I am wondering if there is a setting I missed to zoom to cross-probed items:
If “Zoom to fit cross-probed items” is checked when selecting a component on schematic the pcb view is zoomed “out”, that’s not really useful, especially if you have a small component (0402 or smaller) and the pcb is big.

What I am looking for is an option to zoom “in” when cross-probing

I have the same issue after switching to V8.
Zoom to fit and centre view on cross probed items not working in V8.
Is this a bug, or is there a workaround?

Actually it is working some of the time. Sometimes it zooms to fit but the zoom level is a bit inconsistent. Sometimes it centres but not always.
