Hi Andy, I'm trying to follow your instructions, but had some trouble with it. By fiddling around I got the cell which contains my point of interest (by location, the point is not a node) to be highlighted. I'm wondering if there's a way for me to get the Cell ID of the highlighted cell? I'm using version 3.6.1.
Thanks!
