    So its really usefull getting a purple box around slave objects but I think it would be really useful to see master objects too.

    It just occurred to me when I notice a massive lighting set flashing occasionally. I must have left part of a complex logic circuit I was building selected when I added the lighting. Now I'm left to either remove the lighting and refit it or find the parent block (not practical)

    Seeing the parent would be really useful

    Sounds like a good idea. I hope we don't run out of colors for boxes though.

    OK so how about when you select a master system all the elements become highlighted in their respective colors as an "open" group. Selecting any component computer within the group gives that component an additional highlight box of the same color 3 pixels bigger than the 1st one.
    Deselecting the master closes the group.
