Property definitions are not correctly generated if SelectedObject is changed when an editor assigned to a nested property that is not present in a new object is active

created 9 years ago

After upgrading to v1.8, our users started experiencing an issue with the PropertyGridControl not displaying selected items. Upon further investigation, I found that the issue occurs when you have an object that has a property defined to use the ExpandableObjectConverter. If you expand and are editing one of the properties' sub-items, then change to an object that does not have that same property, the PropertyGridControl shows up empty.

This behavior can be seen in the attached project. Any item displayed as #Circle: ##" has a Center property that uses the ExpandableObjectConverter. If you expand the Center and edit any of X, Y or Z and then change to one of the "Rectangle: ##" items the issue should occur.
