Window.SelectPane

SelectPane makes an exact or relative pane active in the receiver's exact winlink without selecting the window in its session. Target must belong to that same SessionID and WindowID; a PaneID alone does not identify a linked view. The returned Pane is the freshly materialized active pane in the receiver context, not a canonical ID-only view.
