Altium PCB highlight component pads when moving designator

[bill_bailey]

Hi, I don't seem to see a way to automatically highlight the pads when selecting and moving the designator silk screen.

So it's possible to mix up silk screen designators inadvertently by moving them near another part's pads.

Using Summer 09. Have I missed an option?

I was also curious about that feature, but what you recommended it seems more interactive than actually performed automatically.

Thanks, but it doesn't seem to work, at least not on this Version.
