Why is my structure search query not highlighted in the 2D diagram sometimes?

Solution

The highlighting of the structure search query relies on the matching of the 3D coordinates with the 2D chemical diagram. If the entry in question either does not have any 3D coordinates or the matching between the 3D coordinates and the 2D diagram has not been possible for some reason, the diagram will not have the query highlighted.
