Hi, 
 
In the structured views with "focus on active task" turned on, I suppose  
  Alt+click on an element will reveal all its uninteresting children.  
But when I do that, nothing happened except that the mouse icon turned  
into a "+" sign. Alt+Right arrow works as expected, although I found  
that just pressing Right Arrow itself also does the same if the view is  
wide enough. 
 
Is there any configuration in Preference in order to make Alt+click  
work? BTW, I'm on a Linux machine (Ubuntu 6.06) if it's relevant. 
 
Thanks, 
Xiaoyang

A short explanation of how it works is here:

And a longer one here:

Thanks Mik. 
 
Follow-up: the problem I had was because the window manager uses  
Alt+click for moving a window. Setting the window movement key to  
something else makes Alt+click navigation in Mylyn work as expected.
