- Tree view
A tree view or an outline view is a
graphical user interface element (widget) that presents a hierarchical view of information. Each item (often called a "branch" or a "node") can have a number of subitems. This is often visualized by indentation in a list.An item can be "expanded" to reveal subitems, if any exist, and "collapsed" to hide subitems.
Tree views are often seen in
file manager applications, where they allow the user to navigate thefile system directories. They are also used to present hierarchical data, such as anXML document. Extended tree view is the central component of anoutliner application.ee also
