The actual content is always at the right, but this can be unviewable unless the column is resized. It's not always possible to resize that column wide enough and still have room for the other 7 columns in that part of the display plus the Object details section. Not everyone has a 21" monitor like I do, and if I have problems, I'd imagine it is worse for others. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Find a document with a deep tree 2. Ctrl+Shift+I 3. Select a part of that document that is deep in the tree The problem is more pronounced if you inspect a window and then inspect a document within that window. Actual Results: I couldn't see the tree for the column being too wide. Expected Results: Some method of scrolling should be implemented. At a minimum, if a deeply nested element is selected, the Inspector should show that element by scrolling the column sideways. Ultimately, the document tree should have its own scrollable pane. The additional information available for each element would then have to be displayed in a separate part of the display. But this is not trivial.
