expanding the Project tree: keyboard shortcut?

Post by **Lars** » Sun Mar 20, 2005 12:15 am

Hi,
In the Project tree, where you can navigate through the files and folders using arrow and letter keys, there does not seem to be any way to expand a folder to show its children using the keyboard. In particular, keypad-+ doesn't work. Similarly, keypad-minus doesn't collapse a folder. Suggestion is to provide some way to expand/collapse these by keyboard; I think keypad-+/- are fairly conventional (at least in Windows).

Regards,
Lars

Hi Lars,

In Java 1.4 the shortcuts for expand/collapse are Left and Right arrows, respectively. In Java 1.5 + and - also work.

Best Regards,
George
