Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

Is there a key to press that will allow me to close ALL message threads up
at once?

Re: Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

Not a key that I'm aware off. But you can change the setting in Tools,
Options, Read, Automatically Expand grouped messages

Re: Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

I want the opposite, I think. I want to close all messages and sub messages
all at once.

Re: Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

Toggling Expand group messages off results in just the first thread in each message being present and based on your 'View'
settings(Show all, Hide Read, etc)a

Are you asking how to make the entire message and preview pane to be void of any messages and threads ?

Re: Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

I want all the message there, I just want all the triangles white and
pointing to the right (closed). Like maybe there is a key like ctrl or shift
or alt or something else that, while held down, would cause all siblings and
parent to close while closing the OP triangle.

Hope this makes sense. If not, let me know.

Try Ctrl-h twice? (assuming you have unchecked
Automatically expand grouped messages
otherwise Alt-T,O Ctrl-Tab,x )

Re: Closing ALL newsgroup threads at once

Michael covered the only option.
Tools/Options/Read/
- Uncheck Automatically Expand grouped messages

See attached pic of what it does..
