Here's how the subtree is displayed (line numbers are added by me):

1    1

2        String1 (1)

3        Value...displayed nice...

... Further values of the subtree...

Line 1 is generated by proto_tree_add_uint_format() and proto_item_add_subtree() functions.

Line 2 is generated by proto_tree_add_item() function.

There is an expansion "+" on line 1. So, if the branch is not expanded, only "1" is visible. My goal is to display both "String1" and "1" when the tree is not expanded.

Thanks again!
