[Matroska-devel] Question about Matroska's Enable/Hidden flag of Chapter/Edition

[Moritz Bunkus]

Hey,

I have to admit that I don't remember any particular discussion about
this topic. But as Matroska itself is a hierarchical format I'm pretty
sure that any property applying to a parent object also applies to its
children.

An example. If a parent has to children and their flags look like this:

Parent (Enabled=0)
+ Child 1 (Enabled=1)
+ Child 2 (Enabled=0)

then none of those entries should be shown. If the parent is now
toggled to 1 then only the parent and the first child should be shown
as toggling a value in a parent does not toggle the same value in its
children.

Kind regards,
mosu
