Collapse All Folders

In Windows Explorer, clicking on the down arrow while holding down the CTRL key will collapse that folder and all of its subfolders. This feature has also been implemented in Dreamweaver. It would be helpful to have this feature in Bridge also. Currently, the only way to collapse all folders is to quit and restart Bridge.



On my site there are well over 1,000 folders and subfolders on three drives, including many A, B, C, … X, Y, Z folders nested five levels deep. After several additions or edits, the folder list in the Folders pane gets very long, requiring several folders to be manually closed just to make navigating easier.

I tried 'Ctrl & Down Arrow' in Windows Explorer but it does nothing.

Could you explain it on some example? Till then here's associated thread:
