How to open all subfolders at once

Solved

Hello,

I know that on Mac OSX, there is a keyboard shortcut to close all the folders on the screen at the same time.
Is it possible to open all the subfolders of a single folder at the same time?
I mean, to expand the little arrows (that are in front of each folder) downwards all at once?
I don’t know the shortcut, and if it exists, I would like to know it.

Thank you in advance.

Good evening,

Maybe this solution seems too simple to be a solution, but
you select all the subfolders with the mouse and press  + O.

Best regards

Hello

This command works. It opens each sub-folder in a different window.
Thank you, I didn't know it either. :)
But is there (maybe not) another keyboard shortcut that only allows you to expand all the arrows downwards, enabling you to view all the sub-folders in one folder?

Hello,

Yes, it's possible
in the window you set the display to list view,
you press Command-A to select all,
then you hold the option key while pressing the "right arrow" key, if you want to expand further, you reselect all (Command-A), then again: Option+right arrow.

To close (collapse), the process is the same, but you use the left arrow key.

Best regards

So, Command-A followed by Command-O?
And Shift - <+> does what?

Hello,

Not long ago, I could still open all the subfolders of a folder using ALT + folder arrow, as "Sanspseudo" mentioned above...

But that no longer works! Maybe since the upgrade to Yosemite? Anyway, I'm really in a bind; I have to click on 300 arrows!!!

Does anyone have an idea? Maybe a settings adjustment in System Preferences?
