  1. Hi Sergey,
    I added a parent folder to the navigation pane using navigation pane – custom items option.
    However I do not want the parent folder to have the expand option (the blue arrow prefixed to the right of the folder name) . Is there an option to just show the parent folder as a plain folder and disable the option to expand?
