    While using AI2 there are two major ways in which the scrolling policy really annoyed me.
    Designer: When in designer if you are editing properties of a component that has many properties you frequently scroll all the way down to set the the property then have to scroll all the way back up to see the effects.
    Blocks Editor: I can't tell you the amount of times I've tried to scroll the Palette panel or the block editor and end up scrolling the main browser. (this was my biggest slowdown in using the block editor.)

    Well boredom comes in handy at times, I've made a branch to play around trying to make the interface operate more like a desktop application and I think I achieved that.
    Feel a whole lot better me anyway, test the "ui_noscroll" branch on my repository and please comment.

    Happy Inventing !!

    I had to make the Project List take up the full screen for now as giving it a fixed height was the only way to get it to scroll with pure css, I will add a little JavaScript later on to auto size it when it overflows. Could not get max-height to work.

    Fixed auto scroll on Project panel it does not take the whole height unless it needs to.
