Michael and Hamish, I suspected it was to 'highlight' objects selected in a query, and I tried to check it, but it seems ineffective. The only query panels I know are 'What's here' and 'Pick' (another quite obscure panel) but they seem to ignore the 'Highlight' setting. If it cannot be fixed, and considering it has been replaced (together with 'Pick') in 6.3, shouldn't it better to remove the panel from 6.2.3? In my opinion not to have a panel is better than having a not working one. A similar situation is for 'Scale and Decoration Panel'. It seems not to work since a long time. As it (or its equivalent)works in 6.3 shouldn't be fixed (or otherwise deleted)in 6.2.3?
Thanks a lot for your interest.

Highlighting was a kind of query that would 'highlight' objects selected in a query.
