Summary0004988: New Resources Spawned Out Of User View
Description

Currently, when adding new Resources, either via duplication or creation, Resources are added to the Resource list out of the user's view.

This can lead to issues where:
a) It is not immediately apparent to the user that the Resource has been correctly spawned
b) In cases of a New Resource creation, where the user is immediately invited to type in a custom name for it, this 'focus' appears out of view, and can result in the keyboard keys being held captive by the text box.

To resolve this, we should scroll to the position where the new Resource is within view when spawned into the list.

See attached video.


Repro Steps:

1) Create a Studio Project featuring a MainPage.xaml
2) Navigate to the Resources Panel, and create enough Resources in GlobalResources so that they fill up the Resource Listing Panel.

3) Select any Resource, and press [Ctrl+D] to duplicate it.
Observe how it is not apparent that the duplication was successful (other than the appearance of a scrollbar)

4) At the top of the Resources Panel, inside of the Dictionary, press the '+' icon to create a new Resource of any kind.
Observe how it is not apparent that the Resource creation was successful (other than the shortening of the progress bar)

5) Before clicking anywhere else in the interface after creating the Resource in Step 4), press the [V] key to switch to the Selection Tool.
Observe how the keyboard shortcut fails to switch to the Tool.

6) Scroll down the Resources List.
Observe that the keyboard shortcut didn't work, because the Resources TextBox was 'active' and captive to text input, even if out of view.

Expected Results: Newly-created Resources are placed within the user's view when spawned.
