Keep one container node open in a Navigator

  • Category: Extension Library
  • Platform: Windows
  • Release: 8.5.3
  • Role:
  • Tags: navigator,expand level
  • Replies: 4

I have a page navigator with 3 Container Nodes. This navigator is in the left facet of a layout.  I set the expandLevel property to 0 to have only the parent node showing.

 

> Administration


 _____________________

> Expenses

_____________________

> Approval

_____________________

　

Inside each container node I have some Page Link nodes.

When I open a parent node I can see all its Page Link nodes which is OK.   

When I click on one page link I see the chosen page in the Middle facet which is also ok.

> Administration

_____________________

> Expenses

       All Expenses

       Expenses - no receipt

       Expenses - paid

_____________________

> Approval

_____________________

　

　

But the problem is that the Container node (Expenses in my example) is closing but I want it to remain opened. 



How can I set this?

Do you have the markup? And are you navigating between various XPages?

Yes I am navigating between various XPages.  Here is the code for the navigator:

This is working as designed and an enhancement request has been logged
The expand and collapse feature works perfectly when on the one XPage and swapping out content with partial refresh. However, when you're moving between XPages you lose the last state of the expand\collapse state. PHAN95BGY4 has been logged to address this so that users can easily preserve the state of the twisties.
