In essence the following has been determined to be a bug in SU6 and SU7;

When using Context [RightClick Zoom Extents] to zoom onto a selected object, the following was noted;

Selecting a top group and [Rt.Clk Zoom Extents] will zoom onto the object as expected.

If [View][Component Edit][Hide Rest of Model] is set to OFF/unticked (ON layers are ghosted during edit) [rt.clk zoom ext.] will zoom onto selected sub elements as expected.

If [View][Component Edit][Hide Rest of Model] is set to ON/ticked, (ON layers are invisible during edit) it
does NOT zoom on sub elements. It will zoom onto the global origin beyond the view of the selected object.

Wo3Dan confirmed this by finding;

Even when ALL geometry is on layer0 the 'Zoom Extents' does not seem to work on selections within any editing context in groups and/or components when 'Fade rest of model' is checked. The result is always the current global origin in the middle of the screen.

See? This one is real and not "imagined".
So, how do I collect my Tee Shirt???

[Gaieus]

I usually receive it via FedEx (postage is more expensive than the socks and T-shirts)
