Remember expand/collapse contact groups
The new contact list is now live and it has the option to expand and collapse contact groups. However when I restart teams the are all expanded again.
It would be better if Teams remembered when I collapse a group. then I can for example hide groups of contacts I don't use as often.

It is annoying when I close the chat and the group reopens all chats.

Comments about this approaching two years old. Does that mean Bill and Co is dissing us lowly users?

I totally agree. It's SOOOO annoying as I use this for work and have dozens of contacts and 10 or more groups. CONTRACT / COLLAPSE groups and KEEP them that way!

I want my groups to retain if they are collapsed or not when I close Teams or when I go from on thing to another within Teams. It's VERY annoying to have to recollapse my groups or scroll through to find what I want. Not only that, but the group name isn't very visable. Bold the group name so they stand our more.

After navigating from collapsed Contact Groups to Chat tab then back, the Contact Groups are all expanded. Quite tedious when have 20's of folks in Contact Groups to re-collapse or scroll.
It would be nice to have the 'working' Skype functionality in Teams. After all, my Skype Contact Groups were migrated from Skype, and the functionality worked nicely there.. -

How come with all the intelligent requests to allow the user to decide expand vs less there is not one comment from Microsoft? This new arrangement is simply a painful waste of time.

Please add this option as it is very inefficient that each time I go into Teams, I have to go through all these names to find the one group I want.
Additionally, it would be great to have the ability to set each contact group as expand or collapse as default view and have it be remembered. Sometimes when I am on a specific project, it is nice to have that group always expanded until I close it.

STOP EXPANDING CONTACTS FOR ME!! Please fix this issue. If I collapse a contact list, please leave it collapsed! I have huge lists and this is a real pain.

How about a shortcut like ctrl + collapse or Shift + collapse = collapse all ?? Very annoying not to have.

This is amazing. I need to start every day collapsing my contacts. What a waist of time. I was under the impression that this should make my job more easy

How is this still an issue? This was identified over a year ago. One button collapse for all groups is necessary. Please make this happen already.

My NCAL regional contact list is huge. It won't stay collapsed after exit and re-entry. So cumbersome to use. Please fix!

I also find this lack of control very annoying. I need to keep all contacts collapsed until I decide which one to expand.

Agreed, stay collapsed if I collapse and stay expanded if I expanded it. Let me choose and remember my choice.

due to this I do not use the contacts feature, it would also be nice to reorg the contact groups.

Teams chat may be the crappiest GUI I've ever seen for a chat application. Make it 1/2 as good as Skype for Business, and I'll look at it.

My company just forced us onto this program. The auto expand is ridiculous. I have to have hundreds of contacts and all the groups expand every time?! This is horrible!
