Rollover Highlighting

I recently upgraded SolidWorks 2005 to 2006. I enjoyed the function in 2005 which highlighted model parts when the corresponding model tree item was rolled over with the mouse cursor. For instance, if I needed to remind myself of the orientation the "Front" datum plane I could simply place my mouse cursor over the "Front Plane" item in the model tree on the left of the screen. For some reason, that doesn't work anymore. I can't imagine they've removed that capability in 2006. Faces/Edges in the actual model are still highlighted when I roll over them, but only when I do so in the model. Does anyone know how to turn on rollover highlighting in the model tree?

Thanks,

Aaron
