Couple of ideas I've had while playing with this new tree widget: 1) Type / image system - Ability to specify a default type for all leaf nodes in a specific branch - Ability to over-ride the default at the leaf node level - Have the branch be intelligent enough to figure out the type of a leaf node when dealing with dynamically loaded branches Just to clarify here the purpose of this system is to register different images with different types of nodes so that it will automatically assign the proper image to each type of node. 2) Extended expand / collapse feature - Ability to fully expand all child branches within a given branch node - Ability to fully collapse all child branches within a given branch node The idea here is that you can fully expand and collapse all branches which are the children of a given node. My idea is to put an image at the end of line which is the name of the branch. This image would act as a button which would have two states. One would be a fully expanded state, and the other a fully closed state. This behavior would be optional to the tree widget. If you wanted to use it, you would have to specify it in the widgets constructor. That's all I can think of for now.
