Synchronize the Code Explorer with the Editor

In the Code Explorer you can press a button to synchronize the editor with the Code Explorer. Instead of searching for the tiny button and pressing it every time, the synchronization should be done automatically when you set the caret to another function in the editor.

It can be very confusing, cause in the explorer is several section and it will jump from one section (e.g. functions) into variables or comments or...

You are looking for your AU3, wat is quite easy, but in other languages Code explorer content is much more complicated.

I understand. How about an automatic sync that the user can turn on and off in the settings? Standard: Off.

Would automatic synchronization be possible for functions only? (Not for variables, labels, etc.)

If none of these is possible, please create a VBScript command to which the user can assign a shortcut.

Imagine it for lot of lines in Code explorer.
Each change of CaretY will start search in Code explorer and look for "nearest" line. It will significantly slow down cursor movement in the editor.

Ok, then please create a shortcut to the Sync function, or better a VBScript command to which I can assign a shortcut myself.
