The caption field specifies the ex-HTML caption a node displays

The cursor field defines the mouse-cursor for an individual node.

The cursors field defines the mouse cursor to display when pointing over a node. This property is applied to all node's descendants. The format of cursors property is:

• "nodea" (assistant-node), indicates assistant-nodes
• "nodeg" (group-node), indicates group-nodes
• "expand" (expand/collapse), indicates node's expand/collapse glyphs
• "select" (selection), indicates selected nodes
• "drag-drop", defines the cursor while the node is being dragged using the "drag-drop" action

The enabled field indicates whether the node is enabled or disabled.

The expand field indicates whether the node's direct-descendants are expanded or collapsed.

The expandAssistant field indicates whether the node's assistant direct-descendants are expanded or collapsed.

The expandChild field indicates whether the node's child direct-descendants are expanded or collapsed.

The expandGroup field indicates whether the node's group direct-descendants are expanded or collapsed.

• exTextPathEllipsis (0x4000), for displayed text, replaces characters in the middle of the string with ellipses so that the result fits in the specified rectangle. If the string contains backslash (\) characters, exTextPathEllipsis preserves as much as possible of the text after the last backslash.
• exTextEndEllipsis (0x8000), for displayed text, if the end of a string does not fit in the rectangle, it is truncated and ellipses are added. If a word that is not at the end of the string goes beyond the limits of the rectangle, it is truncated without ellipses.
• exTextWordEllipsis (0x040000), truncates any word that does not fit in the rectangle and adds ellipses.

The show field specifies the type(s) of direct descendant-nodes the current node shows. Shortly, it can show or hides assistant/child or group-nodes of the current node (not recursivelly). For instance, you can hide the node's assistant-nodes if excludes the CV.NodeTypeEnum.exNodeAssistant flag (indicates null (no effect), one or a combination of more flags of CV.NodeTypeEnum type that defines the type of nodes the current node displays). The CV.NodeTypeEnum defines the following flags (type of nodes):

• exNodeAssistant (2), specifies a node of assistant-type
• exNodeGroup (4), specifies a node of group-type

The singleExpandGlyphs field specifies whether the node displays a single or multiple expand/collapse glyphs (indicates null (no effect), or a boolean expression that specifies whether the node displays a single or multiple expand/collapse glyphs).

• {number[]}, Specifies an array of [min-width,min-height,max-width,max-height] type that defines the limits for width or/and height of the measured caption. The min-width,min-height,max-width,max-height can be null which indicates that the limit is ignored, or a positive number that specifies the limit (min or max)

The visible field indicates whether the current node (and all its descendants node) is visible or hidden.
