Generally, the command will automatically
highlight and zoom in to the text, except
in these cases:
■ The text is a file-level property so there
is nothing to highlight on the screen.
■ The text is an object definition prop-

the file. For example, a block attribute
for a block that has not been inserted
would not be higlighted.
NOTE You can instead examine
the properties on the block to see
the text.
