Feature Request - Expand/Collapse Catalogue Sets

Another simple request for use with Catalogue Sets - it would be great to have the option of expanding/collapsing all groups. Currently (again, someone please correct me if I am wrong), I have to manually expand and collapse the different Catalogue Set tree structures.

Outlook and Mindjet (and I am sure countless other programs) have the ability, with a 'right-click' (PC) to expand/collapse groups. Some programs even give you the option of choosing how many layers deep you want to expand/collapse (Mindjet for instance).

This feature would be very useful in the day to day organization of the DAM.

  Use the Alt key (option on Mac)

  John -
  
  Thanks for the tip. I was not aware of this behaviour. As I noted in the other thread, this is great, but something of a blunt tool. It expands/collapses ALL Catalogue Sets. I would like the option to expand collapse through different depths of the hierarchy. And most importantly, I would like this behaviour to be accessible through a right/option click of the mouse.
  
  Currently if I search in the 'help' documentation under either 'expand' or 'collapse' in the search index I generate zero hits.
  
  So while this function as you describe it is ok, it could be a lot better, and more localized. And there should also be documentation to support it.
  
  I have used many of your scripts over the years, so appreciate your participation and feedback in these forums.
  
  Best,
  
  
  
  Andrew.
