    how do you expand(and load) / close content tree nodes using javascript in backoffice

    what are the javascript calls i need to make to manually open/close a particular node?

    if there is relevant documentation please point me to it!

    thanks,

    Simon

    Do you have a custom section? Could you explain more exactly what you are trying to do?

    I think you could use something like 

    UmbClientMgr.mainTree().selectNode(yourNodeId);

    To select it, not sure if this will open though. There are alot of other options you could try.

    Check in UmbracoClientManager.js located in umbraco_client/application folder.

    Best Regards

    thanks Marthin.

    i did look in those files but failed to find what i was looking for.

    in the backoffice, if you double click a node, it will expand to show its childnodes.

    i merely want to replicate this behaviour in code using javascript.

    the problem is that i don't know much about the UmbracoTreeAPI/UmbracoTree object (umbraco.controls.umbracotree is where you can find the object when debugging in firebug) which is where these behaviours are defined.

    thanks again Marthin, the following code expands a node:

    //obviously the number in the jquery selector needs to be changed to the ID of the node you want to expand.

    UmbClientMgr.mainTree()._loadChildNodes($("#1234"));
