Make it so that after I search for an item in the After Effects project panel the original folder structure honors the twirl-down state before the search was invoked after I clear the search to restore visibility of the other assets. Stop completely twirling up all the folders I had twirled open before the search. Thank you

As of v25.5.5 After Effects still doesn’t restore the twirl-down state of the project panel after completing a search.
