Is there a way to prevent PG from doing this? To me is really annoying trying to have a compact view of the tree panel structure while working on a specific section just to see it explode and collapse everything as I drag in a new element. I am on a 23 inch monitor and i have room for this tree as it collapses but maybe trying to work on a more compact and slim ux won’t harm anyone.  
I have noticed that the tree collapses even when just assigning a class to an element on the tree. Right click–\>class–\>assign a new class–\>\> boom!! annoying and irritating.  
As everything is collapsed I find myself working against the bottom edge of the screen if i am working on the last element…

Not Ideal. Not cool.  
I end up going with the code editor. Don’t feel like working in a corner.
