# Rolling up branches of the tree

In the display of the Explorer tree at the beginning of this section, the  [![Little_notepad.png](https://learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-02/scaled-1680-/little-notepad.png)](https://learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-02/little-notepad.png)   <ins>SIMPROF1</ins> window was prefaced by the *rolled-up* icon <img src="//learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-05/scaled-1680-/plus.jpg" width="17">   , and it is necessary to click on this to expand the branch below this point, replacing the rolled-up icon with one indicating that the branch is now *rolled-out*  <img src="//learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-06/scaled-1680-/minus.png" width="17"> 
 (in this case to reveal a *multi-plot* and the two plots, *Graph1* and *Graph2*, which have been collected together under this multiple plot construction, new to PRIMER 7, see below). A second click will reverse this operation, rolling up the branch below that point. This may be a useful way of keeping secondary analysis strands available in the workspace, but without allowing their detailed steps to clutter up the main sequence of analyses displayed in the Explorer tree. Any windows which have been closed in the PRIMER desktop (<u>not</u> deleted from the workspace), e.g. by an individual    [![xtile.png](https://learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-05/scaled-1680-/xtile.png)](https://learninghub.primer-e.com/uploads/images/gallery/2024-05/xtile.png)    or a full **Window>Close All Windows** operation, at the time the workspace is saved, will appear only under a rolled-up entry when the workspace is re-opened. As we saw earlier (in Section [1](https://learninghub.primer-e.com/books/primer-v7-user-manual-tutorial/chapter/1-opening-editing-and-saving-data-file-edit), under the <ins>Saving, closing & opening a workspace</ins> heading) there is a new option to open a workspace with <u>all</u> its branches in rolled-up form, irrespective of how the workspace was saved – thus opening the workspace more quickly – requiring a succession of roll-outs to display individual sheets.
