[Geomoose-users] Catalog->group - can't get GM to start with group folder closed

Tue Aug 14 11:34:00 PDT 2012

In my GM 2.0 and GM 2.4 application I am able to click the folder icon to
collapse/expand the folder group but clicking the folder icon in the GM 2.6
demo website has no effect.  You have to click the words to expand/collapse
the folder group.  Is this by design or should a bug ticket be prepared?

If you are talking about this website,
http://mapservertest.maine.gov/basemap/index.html# the folder
expansion/collapse works for me except that you must click the words of the
group, not the folder.
