TSyntaxTreeView Class

Shows text ranges structure in the memo that is specified in SyntaxMemo property.

TSyntaxTreeView = class(TCustomSyntaxTreeView);

ecSyntTree

Using TSyntaxTreeView you can easily navigate through the text. To specify action when user double clicks on a node use ClickAction property. 

To synchronize syntax tree with the caret position of the syntax memo set AutoSynchronize property to True. In this mode after changing caret position node that corresponds to the nearest text range will be selected in the tree view. 

To make several tree view with different content use GroupIndex property.
