Solution

  • Do you expand the tree before you add child items to it? In that case he doesn't get expanded.

    Here is an example which works for me:

    private Tree createTree() {
        // Create a Tree
        TreeItem root = new TreeItem("root");
        root.addItem("item0");
        root.addItem("item1");
        root.addItem("item2");
    
        TreeItem childwithsubchilder = new TreeItem("subitmes");
        childwithsubchilder.addItem("item0");
        childwithsubchilder.addItem("item1");
        childwithsubchilder.addItem("item2");
    
        root.addItem(childwithsubchilder);
    
        // expand the element
        root.setState(true);
    
        Tree t = new Tree();
        t.addItem(root);
        return t;
    }
