Request - subcollection expanding
I organize my library into nested subcollections, which is immensely helpful in managing a large collection of items. When I expand any subcollection, however, all if its children subcollections open rather than just the next level down (so if I have 3-4 levels of subcollections all of them expand). It would make navigating the library easier if expanding a nested subcollection would only expand the next layer down.
Thanks,

The persistence only works for me within a single instance of using Zotero.
If I shut down and restart Zotero, that state is no longer persistent. When I reopen Zotero, many (but not all) of the collections with child folders will be open though they were closed when I shut down Zotero.
Other collections for which I have specifically closed the nested children (beyond but not including the first sublevel) will open all of the level when I open the collection. I would send you a screen recording, but don't really know how. I'm currently using the most recent version of the beta.
Thanks,
Tom

If it's not for you, can you take some screenshots demonstrating the problem, upload them somewhere (e.g., Dropbox or Google Drive), and provide a link here?
Extra menu items "expand / close all" also wouldn't necessarily conflict with persistent open/close states. They could for instance just be updated accordingly when called. And be left as they are, if not. Both ways of navigation would be possible in parallel.
And - how could I miss this.. Could you perhaps spend an extra entry for this in the right-click context menu for collections in one of the next updates ?
