How can one quickly collapse browser?

We are working in large assemblies and the browser is long. Is there a Fusion way to collapse all?

Click on the triangle to the left of the top node.

If, however, you mean collapse all level 1 components, then you may need to ask this question in the API forum.

Hi ,

just make a component and drag drop others in it .

Clarification: For example Ctrl+C collapses the browser to the level in the attached image.

good idea but this level 1 view is like the home base when we start digging into browser.

"Unfortunately, the API does not provide any access to the browser, so what you're asking for is not currently possible."

Another method....

With some practice using the arrow keys to collapse many expanded items in the browser is quite fast.

Hello Again Community,

I am returning to this...It is a real pain point for me. I love having returning to a clean collapsed browser.

It is simply to much clicking to get your browser to this state in Fusion.

SW has a Collapse All for its browser-timeline....

Would anyone else like a Collapse All for the Fusion browser? 🤔

And Expand All whille we are at it! 😁

Yeah i would like this feature, seems like a no-brainer to me.

Dear Autodest,

This would be super helpful. Being better than SW in every capacity would be super. SW can do this. Please be super.
