Nest triggered cues under Collection cue #287

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Hi, I'm using LiSP with QLC+ to create a cue which plays some music in response to a bluetooth midi remote (Noise machine Straightvibe edition) and then at a specified time sends a midi signal to QLC+ to flash a green spot and at the same time plays a second sound file to create a wooshing sound. It's for a magicians entrance and it works quite well. There are some niceties whci I think would make this easier to use in practice. When I create a collection cue from the previously created cues for the media and music cues. I have multiple cues in the list when I only want to use the collection cue (renamed Entrance). Is there some way to hide these components under the heading of collection cue, to be shown only when the collection cue is edited? (this is list mode, i haven't tried this with the other mode). Also a minor issue is that drag and drop is not working under Ubuntu Studio. I think it's a problem with Ubuntu studio but it would be nice if a move menu item popped up when right click was used.

Describe the solution you'd like A solution would be to move the cue in the cue list to a subheading under the Collection cue heading when it was added to the collection cue. I might be wrong but this seems to be a UI only problem.

This would also allow for logical cue numbering in the list layout where the collection cue represents one cue and the sub cues may (preferre) or may not be numbered so as to prevent an operator becoming confused (as I am while programming my remote control)

Describe alternatives you've considered Simply removing them from the gui cue list but keeping them 'alive' is a possible solution but would not allow for cloning of the sub-cues to other entries in the visible cue list and runs the risk of leaking memory with no visible way to access an orphan cue.

I think this is the same as #283? And probably others that I cannot find.

Also a minor issue is that drag and drop is not working under Ubuntu Studio. I think it's a problem with Ubuntu studio but it would be nice if a move menu item popped up when right click was used.

Can you open another issue or a discussion for this?
