I just spent the afternoon installing Visual Studio 2019 & VisualMicro. I love it so far and I'm well on my way, but...

In the MicroExplorer, the tree items appear as hyperlinks. As I move the mouse over the tree, they're all clicking at me and auto-activating, and I can't use the keyboard on them...

Can the hyperlinks be disabled so it works like a normal tree control, where the items become highlighted when clicked..?? And then I can then use the arrow keys to zoom around the tree..?? If so, how..?

Well, my two cents is this. You're on a great track with the tree control. I also work with Teensy, and the additional Examples make the file menu of the Arduino IDE hellacious to navigate. And by extension it makes the clickiness of the MicroExplorer difficult too.

What if one simply wants to explore the Examples? I really prefer the keyboard arrows for this. Having to deal with the scrolling of the over-sized Arduino IDE menus makes it so difficult, and by extension the hyperlinks of the MicroExplorer. When I saw you'd 'treeified' the Examples, I was thrilled, but that joy was dashed when I realized I still had to use the mouse to click through them. It was much better than the menus, but still difficult.

I see no reason the data behind the treeview cannot be cached to resolve the latency issues, so the tree nodes can be quickly opened & closed with no delay.

I implore you; please don't do something funky with it. You're on the right track. It just needs some refinements to make it work more smoothly, and make that ancient Windows XP style hyperlink thing go away, or at least be disable if the user chooses.

Also, thanks for the tip about the search bar. I was stuck on the hyperlink issue and didn't even notice it, lol.
