Discussion Board Tree and List Views
Discussion Board threads display in a new manner. The Tree View and List View buttons are used to expand or collapse discussion board threads.
- When the List View is selected only the top level threads are listed in the display.
- Click Tree View to show an expanded list similar to what was used in earlier versions of Blackboard.
Additional changes to the Thread views include:
- The Options Toolbar now displays at the top of the screen.
- Sorting entries (in ascending of descending order) is done with the triangles located above each column heading.
- Unread posts appear in bold type.
In the example all posts are listed in the Tree View displaying all associated replies. To view only the top level posts, click the button labelled List View.
