Finding components can be tricky on a large screen with many components. Many times I have done a search, as I am unable to see the highlighted component. Why not circle these components with a circle similar to the one used for DRC errors? I also would like to be able to highlight a set of components, so that when there is a group of things to put together, that it can all be brought together.

As far as working with pours, I would like to see an arc option added. Also, why can't the points be selected and deleted with the delete key? I needed to do multiple pours on one board, and wanted half the pour snapped to the board outline. I had to manually erase half the points, using the right, then the left mouse button on each one.

Adding the 3d component list to the side of the edit window is a good idea, however there needs to be some sort of search function, perhaps similar to the way typing letters of an item works in the standard windows fileopen window.

Increase scale and double click on the list item to see component, however we will consider more visible marking as well as group.

For copper pour - right click an choose Border, then delete necessary points.

Search for 3D models has been added to the to-do. Currently they are just sorted alphabetically.
