Add a "Collapse" in the "folder name" right-click menu
Description
This function would collapse recursively the tree structure under the selected folder. It would be implemented in the "Projects" and "Files" window views.
Use case/motivation
The issue today is that the only function available is "Collapse All".
Sometimes I need to collapse recursively specific folders but not the parts I am currently working on.

Not sure if I understand this. You want to close all nodes except those of the files you have currently open?
i usually just use collapse-all and then press ctrl+shift+1/2/3 to open the tree in projects/files/favorites for the active editor tab I am currently interested in.
Currently, if I collapse "common" (using the icon), the expended nodes further in the tree are not collapsed so I have to manually collapse each of them manually.
The feature I was thinking about: if I right-click on "common" and select the function "Collapse" it would recursively collapse the tree structure under "common" including "common".
This would be usefull when the tree structure is "deep" and/or "large".
PS: thank you for your great work! Big fan of NB for years.
I see. Like Collapse All, but Collapse would be just for the selected sub-tree, accessible via context menu of the node.
I did development with Netbeans and have interest in this issue. May I take this? :-)
@WhiteHsu of course. Simply open a PR or a draft when ready so that a reviewer can take a look.
Thanks @mbien .
I'm trying to build the project but encounter errors. May I consult your opinions?
What I've done are:
- Fork and clone the project to my local on my Windows 10.
- Install JDK 19 (The Latest Version)
- Download ANT 1.10.12 (Latest Version too)
- Then go to the local dir of the home folder netbeans
- Run command "ant" with Admin auth.
Then I got the error: package javax.help does not exist [javac] import javax.help.HelpSet
May you kindly suggest what I may miss?
Pls refer to my cmd screens as attached. Thank you very much.
@WhiteHsu can you move this to a github discussion (or the mailing list)? Its better to talk there instead of using an issue for it.
Thanks @mbien . Have posted it here: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/discussions/4797
Pls kindly help suggest and feedback. Thank you very much. :-)
@cazonda sure if you want. But this isn't really required to work on an issue.
I don't understand, @mbien. Are you saying that there is no work to do on this issue or you're saying that I should work on another one?
@cazonda sorry, what I mean is that you can work on this issue without asking someone to assign it to you. Its good that you mentioned that you want to work on it though - contributions are indeed welcome :)
