Functions getNextNode() and getPreviousNode() operate differently based on whether node is open or closed about jqtree

PS: I should have said earlier, but I believe we have a work-around in our code. Regardless, we're interested in whether this is the desired operation or not. Thanks again!

The getNextNode and getPreviousNode functions work like this by design. The getNextNode function does the same thing as pressing the 'down' key. So, if a parent node is closed, it skips the child nodes.

Maybe I should rename these functions to getNextVisibleNode and getPreviousVisibleNode.

Those function names are definitely clearer. I would suggest doing that (although it might break someone's code).

You might want to add a note to this effect in the documentation, that they only work on open nodes.

And it would be nice to get methods that get next/previous whether the nodes are open or not.

Thanks!

Version 1.7.0 is just published:

• The getPreviousNode and getNextNode now work as expected.
• The original functions are renamed to getPreviousVisibleNode and getNextVisibleNode.
