Description Andreas Goetz CLA 2007-06-22 07:23:09 EDT
Queries should stay expanded as before clearing the find string (clearing the last character from the search string as well as when clicking the x button)
Comment 1 Mik Kersten CLA 2007-06-22 15:34:17 EDT
This is a safeguard to prevent a large Task List from showing thousands of elements which can be slow.  But we could consider removing it.
Comment 2 Andreas Goetz CLA 2007-06-25 03:00:16 EDT
Understood. Should not matter though if I had already manually expanded the task list before. So my suggestion- restore the collapsation (?) state as it was before search?
Comment 3 Mik Kersten CLA 2007-06-25 12:55:00 EDT
Note to self: This might require support from FilteredTree in Platform.
