Displaying Photos in Lightoom 7 (Local option)

Longtime LrC (Windows) user and now trying Lightroom 7 using the local option. I can see thumbnails for folders containing images but if I look at the parent folder I see nothing - it also means I cannot search on keywords at the parent folder level. Within LrC there is a Library option to include sub- folders but I cannot for the life of me fathom how to solve this - hopefully I'm just missing something obvious and if anyone could point me in the right direction I'd be most grateful.

Yes, a function to see all images in sub-folders (under one parent folder) is "missing" when viewing 'Local' folders in Lr.

See other posts on this topic- https://community.adobe.com/t5/lightroom-ecosystem-cloud-based-discussions/showing-content-from-folders-and-subfolders-in-lightroom-local/m-p/14287433#M86189

Perhaps Adobe will add this function in future releases.
