Select an image in the contents panel when I click it in the map

In a workflow in which there is a large number of overlapping images, it would be very useful if when clicking on an image (in the map), it would be automatically selected in the contents panel because this would allow it to be identified among the set of images in a way simple.

Please try:
1. Open Footprint Attribute Table.
2. Select by Circle.
3. In the map, double click on an image.
4. Show selected Records in Footprint Attribute Table.

Do look to use Mosaic datasets. They provide a lot of tools to work with overlapping imagery and defined rules for what image is displayed on top. You can also view the footprints similar to feature classes to identify, query metadata and add to new layers.

If the input is just a bunch of layers that also consider Catalog Layers. They also create simple catalog of layers (including rasters) that you can see either as the layer or a set of footprints that can be selected etc.
