There are a couple of problems within the Inspector when working with reference properties.

1) Changes aren't properly detected when a reference property is cleared.  For example, with a TLabel control, if the FocusControl property is set and then cleared, the expansion '+' remains visible and if expanded will still show the properties for the control it was previously set to.

(With my own components, I am finding that clearing a reference property setting in the Inspector doesn't trigger the related Set procedure.)

2) If a reference property is changed while the properties for the referenced component are expanded, they are not being refreshed.  For example, with a TLabel control, if the FocusControl Property is set to a control, expanded, and then changed to another control, the properties of the original control will still be shown.  If the setting is collapsed and then expanded the correct properties will be shown.

Both of these issues are fixed now.
