When navigating through library items, or any item for that matter, it would be nice to have an option to change the ring around the item to a more noticeable, obvious color or pulse, something of that nature that makes it immediately apparent which item you have highlighted. It is very confusing and sometimes requires navigating up down left or right to see which item you have actually selected/highlighted. For Plex pass users this would fall under the theme category as an option hopefully to change the highlighted item navigation color or animation. Slow pulse, circling snake, slow glow etc. ---

I suppose what you’re asking for is already being discussed in this existing feature suggestion thread (with the exception that you seem to prefer some kind of animated highlight). I suggest you comment/vote in that thread in order to help us avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes. > [@Add border to current selection on gui](https://forums.plex.tv/t/add-border-to-current-selection-on-gui/607956): > > It would be great if there was a border around the current selection on the gui. Something like a yellow border. My wife has worsening eyesight and has to move the selection from item to item sometimes to tell what is the currently selected item. # Unless I’m missing some unique aspect of your suggestion I’ll close this thread as a duplicate. ---

Correct. I did my best to search through the plethora of threads for something that would match what I was trying to describe but the one you mentioned covers it. Thank you for following up. I will upvote the other thread ---
