Thanks for the JCE editor!

I have a small request or suggestion—I’m not sure if it’s possible, but it would be really nice if, while in **editor view**, you could scroll through an article, highlight an element or text, og just set ther curser somhvere and then switch to **code view**, where the view would show the selected element/curser and keep it highlighted. The same should work the other way around as well.

All the best Ulric

This is partially supported, in that if you put the cursor on a line, eg: at the end of a paragraph, then when you switch to the Code tab, the corresponding line in the code will be highlighted.

At the moment this is the best I can offer. These are 2 different editors that work in 2 completely different ways, so it is very challenging to sync them up in the desired way.

Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean everybody isn't out to get you.

Thanks for your reply! I understand the complexity between the two editors.

Is there a setting in JCE where this can be configured, or is this standard behavior between the two views?
