Highlighting fields of structures in Matlab editor?

When you select a structure in the Matlab Editor, it highlights the name of the structure throughout your script. But when you select a name of the field of the structure, they are not highlighted at all.

Is there a way or is Mathworks planing to fix this issue? That would be highly recommendable from very-long-scripts point of view.

Hi @rokP,

I am able to observe that fieldnames of structs are not highlighted on selecting an instance of it in R2018a.

The issue seems to be addressed from R2023b onwards. I recommend upgrading to the latest version of MATLAB to observe this enhancement.
