Data Explorer: Do not automatically expand/minimize when clicking on branch

Related products:Search and Data Exploration

When using Data Explorer, if you click on an Asset, that branch will expand, and others will minimize.  Sometimes I want to be able to switch between similar Assets that are in different hierarchies (Example being two different lines in a plant, or two different facilities).  The current behavior is that if you click on an Asset all other asset trees will be minimized.  Even if you manually expanded other hierarchies/trees, clicking an asset will reset the view.

Would be nice to either have an option (checkbox) to auto-minimize or change this default behavior.  

 

Example Tree:

  • Plant 1:
    • Tank1
    • Mixer1
    • Press
  • Plant 2:
    • Press
    • Mixer
    • Oven
    • Tank

If I were to click on Plant1>Tank1, all of Plant 2 would get minimized.  If I were to expand plant 2 manually then click on Plant1>Tank1, again then Plant 2 would once again get minimized.  Ideally I’d like for Plant 2 to stay expanded until I manually minimized it.

Hi @Dillon Perera !

Thank you for sharing feedback on Data Explorer, and giving a clear example to help understand the need!

We are taking note of the request and will monitor interest/upvotes for future evaluation.

Hi @Dillon Perera ! Have you tested out Search yet? In the industrial tools workspace, Search is taking over from Data Explorer now in December. In Search, the expand/collapse logic on Tree view is updated. 

 

Best, 

Sofie
