Got tired of searching for units in the ORBAT, so I added a button and a keyboard shortcut to jump straight to the active unit ("l" for locate) #dogfooding

There's not a lot you can do with the selected units yet, but I plan to add more batch editing features soon.

I'm not quite ready to upgrade ORBAT Mapper to 2525E/APP6-E yet. I need to figure out how to handle the new symbols without breaking old scenarios.

@spatialillusion Thanks! It works now (with some minor tweaking of types)

@spatialillusion I'm looking forward to upgrading to milsymbol 3. Impressive work as always @spatialillusion! It's a pity frontend tooling and bundling can be so frustratingly difficult to get right, especially if you try to support legacy systems.

@spatialillusion I'm pretty sure that's the issue here.

@spatialillusion This seems to be a type issue. The code runs fine in dev, but fails when building with typescript errors: import ms from "milsymbol"; const customColorMode = ms.getColorMode("Light"); error TS2339: Property 'getColorMode' does not exist on type '{ Symbol: typeof Symbol; }'.

RT @spatialillusion: Think I just fixed the last remaining issue for milsymbol 3. I will now display different symbols, where they differ,…

I should also add an "exclude" option, so that you can ignore parts of the ORBAT.

@CS_Hannibal It does make sense. The tree search filter and grid view are not optimized for huge orbats yet. A lot of unforeseen things pop up when testing at scale.

@CS_Hannibal The ORBAT tree does not handle thousands of visible units well. I need to add some kind of virtualization to avoid rendering hidden items.

@CS_Hannibal Great idea. Limiting the list to the first 10 or something units is also an option. Maybe with a button to show the rest if the user wants to.

@sirdo_ After I implemented this I quickly realized that it is too time consuming add visibility settings to individual units, so I plan to implement better filtering/selection features soon 😃
