Examples

private void ScrollToSelection(AutomationElement target)
{
    // Specify the control type we're looking for, in this case 'Document'
    PropertyCondition cond = new PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty, ControlType.Document);

    // target --> The root AutomationElement.
    AutomationElement textProvider = target.FindFirst(TreeScope.Descendants, cond);

    TextPattern textpatternPattern = textProvider.GetCurrentPattern(TextPattern.Pattern) as TextPattern;

    if (textpatternPattern == null)
    {
        Console.WriteLine("Root element does not contain a descendant that supports TextPattern.");
        return;
    }
    TextPatternRange[] currentSelection = textpatternPattern.GetSelection();

    currentSelection[0].ScrollIntoView(true);
}

Private Sub ScrollToSelection(ByVal target As AutomationElement)
    ' Specify the control type we're looking for, in this case 'Document'
    Dim cond As PropertyCondition = New PropertyCondition(AutomationElement.ControlTypeProperty, ControlType.Document)

    ' target --> The root AutomationElement.
    Dim textProvider As AutomationElement = target.FindFirst(TreeScope.Descendants, cond)

    Dim textpatternPattern As TextPattern = CType(textProvider.GetCurrentPattern(TextPattern.Pattern), TextPattern)

    If (textpatternPattern Is Nothing) Then
        Console.WriteLine("Root element does not contain a descendant that supports TextPattern.")
        Return
    End If
    Dim currentSelection As TextPatternRange() = textpatternPattern.GetSelection()
    currentSelection(0).ScrollIntoView(True)
End Sub

Remarks

ScrollIntoView respects both hidden and visible text. The UI Automation client can check the IsHiddenAttribute for text visibility. If the text range is hidden, the text control will scroll only if the hidden text has an anchor in the viewport.
