Research direction

Start by locating the tree view component and the state used when it opens. Change the initial state so the tree is collapsed, then verify that opening the view shows collapsed nodes while existing expansion behavior still works.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

On start all tree items are expanded, and on a refresh or when switching beamlines, everything re-expands. There are likely way too many subscreens for this to be desirable.

I believe the behaviour should be:

  • on startup with no cache everything is all collapsed
  • on refresh/beamline switch - cached state of tree expansion, if nothing cached fall back to all collapsed
