Frank Rueter Posted May 24, 2022 Report Share Posted May 24, 2022 Hi all, it would be totally amazing to have hotkeys to quickly collapse and expand the task tree view with hotkeys. EDIT: I am aware of the standard right/left arrow keys but the below would provide more control. I use WingIDE for Python development and am constantly collapsing and expanding code blocks to keep an overview over complex modules. This is how it could work in ftrack: alt+Home > collapse entire tree alt+End > expand entire tree alt+down arrow > expand selected entity "more", i.e. by one level e.g. if a show is selected, it woudl only expand to reveal it's immediate children like assets and sequences). If a sequence is selected it woudl expand to reveral it's shots (without expanding to task level) alt+up arrow > collapse the currently selected enity "more", i.e. by one level (reverse of alt+down arrow) alt+ctrl+down arrow > same as alt+down arrow but expand the entire branch not just one level alt+ctrl+up arrow > same as alt+up arrow but collapse the entire branch not just one level Here is a little mockup in Wing for a visual: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CUXBfIWqrPudfv-AvFa9Y-rNrxjdc63l/view?usp=sharing Thoughts?

Frank Rueter Posted June 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2022 Ah, thanks, I was not aware of the modifier keys, that is actually quite helpful I think, especially the combo of cmd+click to "compact" the tree, then normal click to expand only the the first level. Thanks! frank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Rueter Posted July 7, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 Hmmm, this isn't working reliably on Linux at all. Usually the arrow keys control the progressbar until I open the detail pane on the right or manage to click in some magic spot. Once I get teh arrow keys to work the ctrl+click doens't work .... until it finallly does eventually. Can you verify that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
