I have different cases in my program, because the robot communicates with an external plc.

When I load a program in polyscope it annoys me that the cases are expanded automatically. Then I need some time to collapse all the cases.  
Is there a way to leave the cases collapsed from beginning? Then I will expand the case I want to work on.

Thanks  
Florian

This setting is not saved with program.  
You can use sub programs for your cases - sub program has “show subprogram tree” property.

Hi,  
thanks for reply.  
Subprograms are not possible after I programmed everything with cases. In addition we communicate with a plc. The casenumber is essential.

Is it possible to implement a “show cases tree” property?
