Is there a way to search the Properties Window in Visual Studio 2010?

Question

The properties window can often become quite overwhelming with numerous items. Is there a way to search its items in Visual Studio 2010 ?

Answer 1

Little late: The RapidDesign Extension has the ability to search the Designer Properties

Answer 2

Depending on the file type, there may already be a search box on the Proeprties window. For example, for XAML documents, there is a search box (see the item about Search at the bottom). However, for C# documents, there is not, and there isn't a good way to search the properties without writing some kind of custom extension.

Edit:

Seeing as your question is about the overwhelming number of items in the properties window, have you tried switching between the Categorized and Alphabetical views of the properties? That should help minimize the number of properties you have to look at at a given time.
