Feature Request: Marker Browser: make the state of the "By Cell" or "By Category" tree persistent

[stefanottili]

When I open the Marker Browser, I always expand the "By Category" Tree to look at the error layers.
It would be nice if the state of the "By Cell" and "By Category" Tree's would be persistent.

I have a question: I think "persistent" refers to remembering the state for the next start of KLayout - i.e. not "persisted in .lyrdb files" when you save the Marker DB.

Right?

Problem is that the collapsed state of the subnodes (i.e. per-cell, per-category) is specific to the cell or category name. So it is likely not applicable to the next marker DB file you open. But I guess most important of all is the collapsed/expanded state of the top level nodes.

[stefanottili]

Yes, the toplevel node state of cell and category should be persistent between different invocations. No names involved, so not specific to any error file.

works great, many thanks
