Autoscroll in Vault browser to selected part/component

Autoscroll in Vault browser to selected part/component

This is jumping off the implemented idea for the Inventor Model Browser: (Auto Scroll in browser to selected part - Autodesk Community).

We would now like Inventor's VAULT Browser to also autoscroll to the selected item, as discussed by @Martin.calmar in his reply: Auto Scroll in browser to selected part - Page 2 - Autodesk Community.
A huge reason is to be able to quickly see the associated Vault data (e.g. iProperties) with a component.  E.g. I click on a component in the workspace, and I need to know what its part number is...sure I can right click, scroll thru the pop-up list to click the iProperties button, then navigate to the Project tab.

Thank you for posting the idea. In the Vault Browser, are you stating it does not go to the selected component?

Also, in the Vault Browser, you can add iProperties to the browser so you don't have to open the iProperties dialog.

@ihayesjr , correct: the vault browser tree does NOT autoscroll to the selected component.  I'm on Inventor Pro 2023.3 & Vault Pro 2023.3.

[The Inventor model browser tree does correctly autoscroll, as was a new feature recently].

And yes having the iPropterties very quickly at my fingertips is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish.  Yes I have the PN iProperty showing in the Vault browser, but I either have to scroll to it manually (could be buried in a subassembly, or just further down a long list), or do the right-click -> iProperties thing.
