Select layer in Contents pane from highlighted map selection or attribute pane

Be able to select the layer in the contents pane from a selected feature in the map. When you have 50-100 layers in various layer groups, it would be great to be able to select a feature in the map and then select which layer it is in on the contents pane. Either right-click menu - "select content layer" or something similar... also same feature from attributes pane from one or multiple selections. That way we can much more easily access the layer we are trying to work with to toggle visibility, view symbology, etc. This could also expand to "toggle layer visibilty" or "edit symbology" in right-click-menu on selected feature

I realize it isn't exactly what the idea requests, but wanted to be sure you were aware of the List by Selection view in the Contents pane:

That may be helpful.

Yes, thx for checking. Thats how I do it now, it’s just a multi step process that way just to find and select the layer of the selected feature.
