Is there a way to programmatically highlight a segment of a ui.SegmentedControl?

seg = ui.SegmentedControl()
seg.selected_index = 0  # does not set the highlight

See: https://github.com/cclauss/Pythonista_ui/blob/master/segmented_table.py

setting selected_index works for me, in the beta. Make sure you actually have some segments defined! setting segments clears the highlight. So just move your line down after you define the segments.

Thanks @JonB that works perfectly.
