Add collapse expand "all" or selected grouped query folders in Query Designer. I build my flows sequentially using the folders, from 1 to 5 queries per folder. Whenever I open the Query designer all folders are expanded.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

Would be handy to make an obvious button or default

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

This is an easy fix and much needed.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

I have a file using 139 queries in multiple different groups and sub-groups.I have to manually collapse these every time I want to work with the overall structure of my queries. It is very tedious so this would be a great user experience upgrade!I have found a workaround that could work for some people though!If you create a top group and put all your groups inside it you can chose collapse all on that group, expand it and all the groups and sub-groups will be collapsed. This helped me bypass this.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

With tons of tables, the overview inside of PQ quickly disappears without default collapsing.Having the choice of default setting (collapsed/expanded) may be the most user friendly.Hope to get this opportunity soon!

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

Is there still no solution to keeping only some folders collapsed? Will be extremely useful. Especially when you have 20 imports that's basically identical and you dont want to see all of them.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

Yes! Just give me the option at least.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

My primary model (we can’t connect to servers) has 318 queries, and mostly from folders. Please make collapsed folders the default instead of expanded. Please, and please again.

Thanks!

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

To expand on this idea, one should be able to select default behavior when editing queries. Either expand all (current functionality) or collapse all.

RE: Collapse/Uncollapse grouped query folders

This feature should persist my previous settings - if I collapse a group, it should stay collapsed when I close and reopen the query editor interface. I have multiple groups of queries and once I'm done with a set, I don't need to modify it again, but having all groups expanded every single time is a bit frustrating. Love the grouping, but it needs to remember that I'm done with group.
