Most of the time while coding, I'll need to look up the name of a particular component on my form, to use it's name in my code. I do this by selecting the item on the form and then looking at the object inspector for the name. I either have to scroll the treeview at the top of the object inspector, or scroll the bottom part until I get to the name to see what it is. Is it possible to make the object inspector treeview automatically scroll where the selected component is visible?

Good idea. Implemented.
