Collapse or Expand All Modules with One Click

For courses containing many modules, I often find myself going through and manually collapsing each one. I would love to have a one-click way to collapse all the modules (and, conversely, to expand them all again). 

This idea has been developed and deployed to Canvas

This would be extremely beneficial for me, especially when I have to go through several long modules. All the scrolling can be frustrating especially since the modules automatically un-collapse whenver you refresh the page.

This would be an essential feature for me. Collapse all and Expand all are common features on pages with a lot of drop-downs, and would be easy to add. Please consider adding. Thank you.

It would be nice to have expand/collapse feature built into the heading levels as well. For instance, a heading within a module may be the title of the lesson. There may be several pages then under the lesson heading. To cleanup the page, a collapse and expand arrow would be nice. Then, at the top of the module have a "collapse all" or "expand all" option.

It would be nice to collapse and expand all modules as well.

In the Modules page, all modules can be collapsed and expanded, respectively. This change allows users to expand or collapse all modules within the page as needed.
