Description freeman3 2011-05-06 16:31:41 UTC

When I have many classes in file, it would be nice have a collapse button, which would collapse the navigator tree so only class names would remaing. Like that I could quicky jump to class I want. It should behave the same way as in eclipse.

Collaps/expand all is a common feature and should be implemented in the navigator.

In javascript methods can have nested methods, which greatly clutters the usability. The other problem is that the navigator does not remember what the user expands or collapses, making it a real pain in the rear orifice.
