[Feature] Add Ctrl + Click on Act expand/collapse arrow to solo/unsolo Act

Open hyuri opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Hi!

It would be nice if we could Ctrl + Click on an act's expand arrow button to expand the act and collapse all the other acts, like a "solo act" feature.

After soloing an act, we can click Ctrl + Click on the act's now collapse arrow button to collapse it and restore the expand/collapse state of all the other acts prior to soloing the act.

Never heard about something similar before :)

What case you want to solve with this feature? Why do you think it will be helpful?

The "solo" feature is present in many apps, especially media creation apps like digital audio workstations and image editors.

Case I want to solve / Why I think it's useful:

Sometimes we have multiple acts with many scenes in each and it gets crowded. And sometimes when I'm working on a scene in Act 2, and I'm focused in Act 2, I only want to see the scenes in Act 2 and not have the scenes in Act 1 take space and push the scenes in Act 2 down in the screenplay navigator.

Sometimes I want to see the big picture, with all the scenes, or check scenes from other acts while working in a scene, but sometimes I just want to focus on that one act.
