If a menu item is expanded and menu trim is selected the trim menu still displays parents. The reason for this configuration is to use the untrimmed menu as a css dropdown (thus requiring all items to always be displayed) whilst using the trim menu for sub navigation.

Maybe I misunderstand your report and did not test the right thing, but I tried to reproduce this bug and could not find any case where the Expanded flag prevented the normal trimming behavior. Do you use any special module for your drop-downs?

Sorry I have mislead you. What I am seeing is the children displaying in the menu_trim block. This is undesirable for my case but would be perfectly acceptable in many others. Perhaps this should be a feature request to not only allow for the trimming of parents, but of children also. I will just use CSS to hide them for now. Module works great.

Then, how would trimming children be different from the expanded/collapsed state? I'm not questioning your suggestion, just trying to understand. ;-)

:) It would be different because the real menu could be expanded (Thus allowing for CSS dropdowns) whilst the menu_trim version could have its children trimmed (Allowing single level sub nav). I have it setup now using CSS for the removal of the children and it is great. That said it is only one line of CSS and no bother to add it so this feature is certainly minor.

Oh, ok, I think I get it. Let's close this then. ;-)
