Re: [platform-ui-dev] Collapse All feature in Navigator view

The fix that Sebastian provided is released in CVS.
The Outliner is worth a thought, outside Java anyway. However, I haven't 
gotten any bug reports asking for it yet.
There was a strong vote for collapse all in the navigator though (lots of 
duplicate bugs).

A Collapse/Expand feature in Navigators (and other potentially large tree
views like the Outline) would definitely be very useful (high usability
value).

Bug 25731 (http://dev.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=25731) addresses
the editor to view linking.
The collapse all feature will likely be useful regardless.

Actually, you don't really need such a Button if you turn off the "Link
Navigator selection to active Editor" Workbench Preference. The default
value for this preference ought to be "false". Many users don't realize
that this preference exists because it is not accessible from the actual
Navigator View.

If you have this preference enabled, you should try working for a few days
and see if you still feel that a Button is needed.  I think that the
Workbench UI team would like to avoid adding complexity when possible.

I think the Navigator view would profit from a "Collapse All" button.

Filed feature request 25825  and supplied a patch.
