unfolding folders completely

I would like to use a function to expand folders in the tree panel completely, not only for one stage, for example using mouse and STRG-button.
Anyone else?- - - - - - - -

I'd second this, and I would like it to be available on a hotkey. It probably should not expand the entire tree unconditionally (which can take a very long time), but rather only expand all levels of subfolders from the current folder. If the current folder is the root of a disk, then it expands all folders on the disk.
Windows Explorer uses the numpad '*' key for this functionality. It is the ONLY capability Explorer has that I miss in Free Commander!
Extra credit would be to make it interruptible, in case you realize you have started expanding a tree with 1000s of subfolders.

Or a question "Will you really expand xxxx folders"? if there are more folders than a limit.

I think a mini-toolbar just above or below each tree would be a good place for a button activating such a function.
