On of the advantages of working with cross references on E-CAE tools like QElectroTech is the posibility to find the linked elements automatically. QElectroTech allows finding a linked element easily.

If the master and slave/s element/s are at the same folio, only by placing the mouse at one element, the other/s will be remarked in blue. The linked element/s can also be found from the element properties.
