Jumping to links is not working correctly in all cases

Jumping to links is not working in all cases - Legend Forum

https://moodo.slack.com/archives/C99CWQ484/p1621300326006600 This one is as old as when issues were tracked in slack (if still available).

Given a [[ link that points to a single other position (the tally counter shows 2 on the link).

When you click on the tally counter to see the linked items the list of items comes up showing (the order used to be this one now they are appearing in different order especiallly when a single line item contains 2 or more links, but this should be the proper order):

a) This item

b) The linked item(s)

You click on (b) to bring up the linked item

Then either:

1. Nothing happens and the dialog just closes leaving you at the original location.  This happens when the linked item is out of view in any of the existing panes.

2.   If the item is actually in view in any of the existing panes then it is highlighted in blue, but not necessarily jumps to that position if the item is in the same pane.

So behavior 2 is useful, but behavior 1 renders the linking capability useless.  The linked item should be brought up regardless of where it is (in another pane or document).

Just clicking on the link does work somewhat and jumps to the linked item in the same pane sometimes, others it just stays in the same place.
Ctrl Clicking and Ctrl-shift clicking are not working as intended at all. They also just try to shift to the position of the linked item if it is visible, but if it is not visible they dont show it. Also the pop up pane is not being opened in the case of the Ctrl Click
