Description jrojcek 2006-11-28 09:14:47 UTC

Finding	
One participant completely overlooked the sub-expression node even though it was visible in the 
Variables window and participant work with the local variables during solving the task.

Severity	
Several participants had problems with locating the sub-expression node. One participant didn't find it at 
all.

Recommendation	
Expand the sub-expression node automatically and show all evaluated expression values.

Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2007-01-11 11:06:33 UTC

O.K. We can have it expanded by default.

Comment 2 Roman Ondruska 2007-07-24 13:49:43 UTC

Accepted. The original reason for having it closed by default was technically oriented. We will try to have this node
open by default.

Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2007-10-02 16:22:10 UTC

The default expansions are set now:
