GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 760623
[regression] Creating a new file does not scroll to the newly created file.

It used to be that when you create a new file, Nautilus would automatically scroll to wherever it is located and enter renaming mode for it. Since the popover renaming implementation, this is no longer the case. To reproduce: - Open Nautilus in iconview mode in a folder with lots of files (such as ~/Documents). - Right-click in an empty space, create a new file - Notice you have no visual feedback whatsoever that the file was created, it's nowhere to be seen because it's alpha-sorted to the "N" letter. Then you have to scroll to it and manually rename it.
