Subject: Re: collapse does not seem to work as expected 

I am not sure if either "Sort Attributes" or the Quick Filter are the main issue, though they could be.  I have implemented a work-around for now, but it really would be nice if this worked as expected.  Or perhaps someone can provide an example of a logbook with working "collapse" functionality.  Thank you for this nifty program; everything else aside, this tool helps keep my work in order.

I also notice that collapse does not work properly if I have anything selected in the quick filter.

Figured it out:  I had "Sort Attributes" set on the logbooks that were failing to collapse correctly.  At least, I think that is the distinction.  

I think I can live with "Sort Attributes" disabled; I don't recall why I chose to set the "Sort Attributes" in the first place.  But I still think this is an issue.

I should add that this does not happen in every logbook.  I'm looking into what the distinction is that causes this in certain logbooks and not in others.

When I click on "collapse," even several times, I still see all the replies in each thread rather than just one entry representing each entire thread.

I am running elogd 3.1.5 on devuan chimaera (bullseye) which I built from source.  I had the same results with 3.1.4 and 3.1.3.

I tried to disable the quick filter just to see if that impacted the behavior, but it didn't.

If there are any other tests I can use to narrow the problem, please suggest them.  Without a working collapse feature, I cannot get a quick birdseye view of, say, all open threads.
