[Qgis-user] Easy way to highlight features?

[Andreas Neumann]

Yes - certainly.

Google for QGIS atlas - the builtin serial printing engine in QGIS.

Please do some research first, as there are multiple blog posts and 
video tutorials available on the web, if you search for QGIS and Atlas.

You can define separate symbology rules for highlighting atlas features 
or features connected with the atlas feature by using the $map, 
$atlasfeature, $atlasgeometry variables in the rule based renderer.

Good luck,
Andreas
