Description Eyal Rozenberg 2021-04-09 22:09:08 UTC

Suppose I'm using the Style sidebar in hierarchical mode. If I:

1. Expand a hierarchy item (which is not my current style)
2. Switch to another kind of style on the side-bar (e.g. from Paragraph to Character)
3. Switch back to the original kind of style on the side-bar

the item I had expanded is collapsed again.

I believe the default should be a _persistence_ of the expand/collapsed state. Resetting this should occur either never; or on closing and reopening the document; or when switching from hierarchical mode to another mode.
