A good suggestion, but I'm not sure if this will work for my purposes. I do have a reference to the child object in question, but I first need to determine if it even needs to be scrolled. All I need to do is scroll it enough so the child object is in view. So for instance, if there is 100px hidden, I need to scroll down 100px. How would I find the amount I need to scroll by to get a child object in view? Thanks for the help! ~Aaron
