When comparing objects object name is not automatically selected. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/quest/original/2X/8/82280bb879390134ac6de06d79c0b1a5d51c7fac.png) After clicking object type combo, the object name is is selected ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/quest/original/2X/5/5f47f85a1e6517b775cc18113683bff5b2ca92eb.png) ---

I made a change a few betas ago so this happens when you select the target connection or schema. ---

I downloaded the latest beta and now Object type is automatically selected, but I still have to click that dropdown to get the Object name selected. If I click Object name without clicking Object type it does not seem like the names list has been properly loaded. ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/quest/original/2X/e/e43dd144d7928957fbf80b4d02c847667e0a1fb5.png) ---

Here is what happens when I do it. Steps are: 1. select everything in LHS 2. select connection on right 3. The window looks for a matching object in the login schema on the right, it doesn't find anything. 4. The window looks for a matching object in the LHS schema on the right. It finds a match. 5. I decide I want the same object in the SCOTT schema. So I change the schema name on the right. The matching object is found on the right. ![SingleObjectCompare](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/quest/original/2X/e/ed1b58a877e4ed2c786e7423edaf95e66822d424.gif) Please let me know what I can do differently to reproduce the problem. ---

Right click on object in Schema browser, I always have the schemas I compare connected when I do this ![image](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/quest/original/2X/1/161c5f17f7c2e8d438997d3e3900b670ad883a65.png) ---

Ah, ok, I can see some bad behavior when I do this: 1. have 2 connections...each with different schema names and DB names. 2. rt-click a table in first connection and choose compare 3. choose 2nd connection in single object compare 4. object in login schema of 2nd connection not automatically found. Thanks. I'll fix.
