The Chart of Accounts by default is shown collapsed:

I'd like it shown fully expanded by default, instead of requiring the user to click on all of the expand arrows:

UPDATED 5/26/15 (I added a git compatible patch for v8)

ORIGINAL ANSWER:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is possible by adding several lines to the view_tree.js file in web addons.

Use the following bzr patch files:

Great post Ray!

As I guess it'll affect any tree to be opened expanded, not only "Chart of Accounts" ? If so, then your question title does not exactly define what is this change for... please read my !Answer

Ray Carnes

I am now aware of any other views that are affected by this change, but this is a global change to the way certain types of views are shown.

There was for v7 a module named web_group_expand, but i don't know if it's ported to v8..you can look after it.

Hi Ray, 

As I guess code you posted in your answer will affect any tree like structure to be opened expanded, not only "Chart of Accounts" ? If so, then your question title does not exactly define what is this change for. However It should be interesting how to do same thing really for "Chart of Accounts", not for any tree (I do not want to affect other trees). Additionally I've requirement to expand Chart of Accounts to some level (lets say 1 or 2), not Fully as it's in your case. If I expand to level 1, so on second picture in the question above, account "1" will be displayed expanded and accounts "100" and "150" collapsed. If I decide to expand to level 2, then picture in this example will be same, but if the tree has more deep, so next levels will be collapsed. i.e. if in this picture account "1399" will be of "view" type and have children, then it'll displayed collapsed and so on.  Any tips?
