Half hearted patch to add expand "all" (1.20 KB, patch)

Description Levander 2007-06-06 10:25:23 UTC 
When looking at a list of directories in nautilus, I commonly want to expand all directories.  Rather than going and clicking on each one individually, there should just be an "Expand All" button.  Most tree controls I see have this Expand All button, why not nautilus?

Half hearted patch to add expand "all"

This is tricky to do as we don't have the complete file tree loaded. This patch tries to open all folders beneath the currently selected but can't do it recursively for "unseen" folders.

Suggestions?

The tree view has been removed from nautilus.
