Properties search bar for WinForms
I'm trying to make a VSIX which will make the WinForms properties window select the first match of whatever's written in a text box.
I'm kinda struggling since I'm pretty new to C# and I can't find my way around the docs yet.
From what I've gathered so far—I get the impression that I should use services?

Thought I'd ask here, my questions so far are:

Thought I'd ask here, my questions so far are:
- Is this possible?
- If so, how can I actually get an instance of this ServiceProvider class which actually works?
- If I get ServiceProvider, what's my next step?
