"Show/hide all" button in Locations panel

#1

Most of the time I like to use Sublime Text with all locations enabled, so I always have a decent overview of what my team is doing:

However, sometimes I want to hide everything except one or two branches, to get a better idea of what I’ve been doing :smile:

What I’m really missing is an easily accessible, convenient “toggle all” button for visibility in the Locations panel.

I know there are the commands “Hide All Branches Except …” and “Show All Hidden Branches”, but for something I do relatively often it’s a bit of a pain to have to type a command.

Any time you have a list of items with checkboxes next to them, it’s intuitive to have a “check/uncheck all” button at the very top. Perhaps you could put it right next to the existing filter button?

Just in case you’re not aware, this functionality is available via Alt+Click on the “eye” icon; it will show that one item and hide everything else.

I was not aware! And apparently alt-clicking the eye-icon again will show all branches. This completely solves my issue. Thanks!
