Summary0001772: Zooming from unit/job list can select other unit on same tile
DescriptionWhen you're on the job screen and hit 'c' to go to a dwarf in order to edit its professions or what have you, the cursor lands on the dwarf's tile and you get the same view as you'd get by hitting 'v' from the map.

However, if there's another unit on the same tile (say, a dog), that may be the first unit in that tile, forcing you to hit 'v' to cycle through units until you get to the dwarf you just selected in the jobs screen.

Minor annoyance, but potentially confusing, and it's easy to edit the wrong dwarf this way.

This old bug was about the unit list, not the job list, but it's basically the same. I'm editing the summary to generalize it.

Just got this bug in 0.31.10. I got so used to it earlier that I had to take a break from DF to actually notice it.
Seems like if there is more than one creature (dwarf or pet) on a tile, zoom from unit list will always go to the same one, no matter which one you selected. It probably goes to the first one on the creature list in specific tile and doesn't iterate further.

Also what Footkerchief posted is entry from the old bug list, not a link to mantis bug, took me a while to figure out.
