What version are you using? In EA 14.1.1427, whenever I move to an element in the Specification Manager, the selection in the Project Browser also moves. I don't know if that was true of earlier versions. If not, try Alt+G.

And in case you meant the other way around: from an element in the Project Browser, how do you find the same element in the Specification Manager? Well the Specification view is just an alternative view of a diagram, so Ctrl+U in the Project Browser to find the diagram, then right-click the diagram and switch to Specification view.

i use 14.1 version i think you didn't understant it

when i click the element which is left side of project broswer (requirment element)

i want to see my element in the specification manager view right away (double click or key board short cut) but when i double click it , nothing happened

In the specification manager view , Right click of the element(in the model view) and then click "find in project browser" or "ALT+G" i can see the element on the left side of project browser right away

is it possible vice versa?

If I select an element in the project browser that is visible in the specification manager it automatically selects it in the specification manager (look at the left side, there's a light gray bar that indicates the selected element)

When it isn't visible in the specification manager manager nothing happens.

I'm not sure about your context either, but if you mean that you want to click on an element somewhere in the Project Browser and have it immediately appear in the Specification Manager, then click on the element and then on the Design > Package > Specification ribbon option.

If the Specification Manager is not currently open, it displays with the contents of the element's parent Package and the selected element visible and marked with the gray bar. If the Specification Manager is already open, it updates to show the same thing.

Is that helpful?
