Retain project tree status of disclosure triangles

Status: New

When reopening a project, the position of the window is retained from the last save of the project, the items in the project tree but not the status of the disclosure rectangles.  I usually like to have open the "chassis" and FPGA components as well as my top level software folders, and build definitions.  I keep sub-vi folder and hardware module folders closed.

 

It would be a time saver (and relatively simple) to preserve the status of those personal preferences so that reopening a project takes you to the same state you left it in.

 

Hopefully this is a moderate reward very low effort request.

Seems like something that could be stored in the lvlps file associated with the project.  Not sure if I care enough about this, but I'll go ahead and give it a kudos.

It might not be trivial, as the tree items can be 'organic' if you have auto population folders. Finding a concise way to store this information could be tricky and resource hungry if done right. Easy way out is to store just the fixed tree items.
