Question

CC library subfolders not collapsing inside parent folders

Not sure if this is a bug or just a setting that I missed somewhere but Photoshop is the only adobe program that is giving me this issue. I have dozens of client libraries with a ton of assets so subfolders help a ton, however, within Photoshop they recently started to not collapse into the parent folders which makes navigating much more difficult. Does anyone else have this issue, is there a setting somewhere that can fix this or is it a bug?

Hi @Henrik Heigl I can't really explain it much further than the children folders are not collapsing or organizing within the parent folders. Please see screenshots of the same CC libraries within Illustrator vs Photoshop. See how within illustrator the children folders are collapsed/organized within the parents, and I am able to click the arrows to collapse or open but they no longer function this way within photoshop. Even when selecting Collapse All Groups in Photoshop, the children do not collapse into the parents. So Basicllay in photoshop there are no subfolders, only folders and it makes it a mess.

Hi,

 

can you explain a little more what you mean? I tried to reproduce what you said and for me all the Librarys are neatly organized. Within those I have Folders and subfolders. If I Collapse those subfolders, go back and in the Folder again it stays collapsed.

 

The only thing that could be missing here is a button with "Collapse all" so that it looks like in your screenshot without having to close all the subfolders individually. Is that what you mean?

regards,Henrik
