Automatic unfold for specific condition
There is a usefull recap at the bottom of the window (in french it is : Récap: X en dépassement, Y en retard, Z inactive, etc.). However, if you want to see quickly every "en dépassement" tasks, you have to unfold every folder one by one to see where they are.
An automatic unfold on all "en dépassement" would help quickly see each tasks you have to do fast.
If not, a button which would automatically fold or unfold all folders would help
This is already possible. Here’s the details for English:
First, you can collapse or expand everything in the View > Tree Options (also keyboard shift-cntrl-E and shift-cntrl-C), but that’s not really what you want here.
Here’s what you want: You can hide and show any type of state by doing this:
1. Click the gear to customize your toolbar
2. Add all the different hide/show buttons for every state
3. these buttons let you hide and show any combination of states, and you can also use the “clear all filters” button to show everything. You can also shift-click on a state to show ONLY that state!
(note: I recommend putting these buttons on the right to be separated from the action buttons on the left)
[my personal feeling is that these should be there by default, but the other developers wanted to keep things simpler and have only the inactive and complete buttons shown by default]
You can also go to list view instead of tree view, sometimes that makes sense. But anyway, it is already the case that if you are showing only late tasks, folders that have those will appear even if the folder itself is not late.
