Description Timm Bäder 2016-01-13 09:26:18 UTC 
This can be observed by e.g. adding somethinf like

if (object)
  g_message ("Selected: %s", g_type_name (G_TYPE_FROM_INSTANCE (object)));

into on_selection_changed in inspector/object-tree.c.

When starting the inspector using crtl+shift+d, I get for example the following output for gtk3-widget-factory:

Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkApplication
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkApplication
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkApplicationWindow
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkApplicationWindow
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkFileChooserDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkFileChooserDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkMessageDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkMessageDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkDialog
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkShortcutsWindow
Gtk-Message: Selected: GtkShortcutsWindow

Although I have not selected any of those of course.
