	I need to display data in each diagram node as a tree view, but the TableNode class only seems to allow one level of expansion. Is it possible to add more, or at least fake it somehow? I know I could use the ControlNode class to host a tree view but this has it's limitations, so I would like to use the table view if possible. Thanks.

	Only one level of expansion is possible at this time. I suppose you can fake a deeper hierarchy by adding more columns and displaying the data for an Nth-level tree item in the Nth cell of the respective row. Collapsing the rows could be implemented by seting their Height to 0. Another possibility is to create a custom node type that renders the tree data in its Draw implementation. I hope that helps, Stoyan

	Thanks Stoyan, I think I'll try and fake it for now (although I think this would be a useful featiure for you to add in future), but is there a way to access the expansion icons (+/-) that are used in the table, or do I just have to copy them and make my own icons? Thanks Brian

	Hi Brian, They aren't really icons, but you can draw them by calling the InternalUtils.DrawExpandButton method. You could do that from the DrawCell event handler if you enable TableNode.CellCustomDraw. I hope that helps, Stoyan
