Expanding and Collapsing Trees

There are several sets of commands for expanding trees to show additional levels and collapsing them to show only the higher levels. These work in the same way as Windows Explorer™ and many other standard tree based applications:

• Mouse commands – click the + and – signs next to nodes.
• Keyboard commands - expand or collapse the tree based on the currently selected node. SCOPE remembers which nodes were expanded previously after the branch of the tree is collapsed (i.e. if the branch is expanded again, it will be restored to its previous condition).

The expand tree Buttons across the top of the screen allow you to select the degree of expansion from 1 level to 4 levels.

The Expand Groups button (g) will expand the tree to just the Function Level of each branch. Expand (n) levels allows you to choose the level of expansion.
