How to contract all folders when finishing a search

Hi,

When a search is finished and deleted through the cross symbol, all folders of the library are extended. It is very tedious to contract them one by one. Is there any option to reverse it and contract all them at the same time?

Thanks in advance.

Correct answer Abambo

The problem is that those drives remaining unchanged when you proceed on a search, when this is finished and you delete it by the cross icon, all drives are open automatically, although they were not in the search.

Try the [ALT/OPT + Click on a Parent folder 'triangle'].

I saw in the link to same question that somebody did this successfully, but it does not work for me, neither with Ctrl, Cmd, Shift or Fn keys.

As you hold down the ALT/CMD key, are you clicking exactly on the 'spinner' triangle? It does not work clicking on the folder name.
