Missing information on Identifiers tab

Does anyone know why the Identifiers Tab on the left side of the IDE is not populated? I do not remember ever seeing any Variable, Function, #define, etc populate that tab. Almost every other IDE has the ability to quickly find and go to where the functions and variables are declared, but not this one. The Headings are there, it is just that they have nothing in them nor do they do anything if you click them. This is very frustrating and time consuming, not to mention that I would like to use them if I can. Thanks for you help.

What compiler version?.
Have you built the project?.

For me, in 5.075, that tab is full with all the subroutine names (in purple), variables (in orange), types (in light green), defines (in dark red) & built in identifiers (in yellow), once you have built a project. Even before building the section names are there. Double click on an item and it takes you to the source for it.
Just tried going back a dozen compiler versions, and all are merrily filling this field.

My build is 5.064.

I have been using this compiler for over a year and I don't remember it ever giving me that stuff. I suspect it is because I am using multiple compilation which just means there are multiple source and header files. I have deleted the INI files and re-enabled the compiler to no avail. I guess I will just call them in the morning and ask.
