Please find attached the updated files for graph_templates.php and data_templates.php. Now they will support highlighting. The are based on todays svn BRANCH revision 3410.

Yes, if you have the time, I have the beer.

As to the beer: I'm sitting here in front of mine. So "cheers" to you on the second Sunday in Advent.

There is also a request to add the functionality to the "Tree's" so that you could Delete, Move, etc. in one fell swoop. That's a little more involved.

Should it look like e.g. Device/Graph Template/Data Template? With checkboxes and Action Dropdown? Of course a filter option on top (and WITH highlighting)...

We also need to be able to Add Host's to a Tree just like we can Add Graphs today.

You have it already implemented in the current BRANCH; or do you talk about sth different?

If you want to take a stab at Tree's. I would say, "Delete", and "Move/Reorder". Yes, the Devices bit is done. I'm going to crack mine in a few minutes.

Larry,
I did some tweaking around with the tree code. Main goal was to preserve the table structure (I did not want to fiddle around with the Graph Tree Display code).
Myself, I'm struggeling with those looooong editing displays. So I changed the UI to display only a single branch of the whole tree. So to dig into the tree, you will have to select the branches step by step (this is near to the behaviour on the graph pages, you'll have to click each "+" Sign to go deeper into the tree structure). As a hint, the number of items of each branch is displayed. By this approach, the displayed tables keep small, so you won't need a filter (filters as used in other lists won't help here).
The actual code is not cleaned up (some print statements are commented, only very few functions defined), because I'd love to have feedback first. Based on the actual code, I had to tweak a lot with parent tree id's and the like.
First, I have attached some screenshots of the new UI. Code follows with the next post.

Here are the next screenshots, now with "real" graphs on them
tree.php is also attached

The last bits of code:
lib/functions.php: only a single new line for the entry panel
lib/html_tree.php: a new function "grow_edit_graph_tree_tier", copied from "grow_edit_graph_tree" and modified (rest is unchanged, at least as I remember)
include/html/inc_tree_filter_table.php: needed for the filter of the entry panel (as usual)

PS
Another approach to keep display lists small would perhaps be to display header only in the tree structure, but in contrast to my actual approach the header display of the whole tree.
This would require an additional "Edit List" tag per tree header, that would allow editing of the items list of that very tree header (so graphs/hosts are only displayed when explicitely requested). I hope this is clear enough to understand; my lack of english hurts me at this point...
