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

Tue Aug 14 12:39:56 PDT 2012

I was looking at Bob's site.  Bob, what did you do to the Catalog control?  By default, there is not a native "nesting radio buttons" feature?  And your build/dojo.js doesn't match SVN, trunk, or The GM 2.6 download.

Are you running nightly and not the standard 2.6?
