How to sum up packages? [message #505887]

Hi,

a short question: how can I sum up the packages in the Package Explorer in Eclipse? The default is:
package1.package2.package3
package1.package2.package3.package4
package1.package2.package3.package5
package1.package2.package3.package6

But it shall look more like a tree and not that the packages are all parallel:
package1.package2.package3 can be opened and package4, 5 and 6 are displayed like in a tree.

I hope you know, what I mean... I had this setting before so I know that it is possible, but I cannot remember where to configure this... Can anybody help?

Using the little drop down Icon in the upper right corner of the view to
invoke "Package Presentation -> Hierarchical"
