IntelliJ IDEA equivalent of Eclipse "Link with Editor"

In Eclipse you can check the "Link with Editor" option and whatever source file you are viewing in the current tab will be highlighted and have its package expanded in the Package Explorer view.

Is there something equivalent to this in IntelliJ IDEA 8.1?
