To preserve category expansion in Gum's Variables tab, the MainVariableGridPlugin and PropertyGridManager recycle controls and track expansion states, ensuring UI persistence during rapid selection changes.

The DataUiGrid handles multi-select synchronization by leveraging internal Gum plugins to recycle controls and manage state-referencing members, ensuring accurate property rendering across multiple selected elements.

To force a full grid rebuild in the Gum Variables tab, you must trigger the PropertyGridManager to discard recycled controls and re-instantiate the DataUiGrid, bypassing standard expansion preservation behaviors.

The Variables tab loses expansion state when internal plugins fail to persist category states during rapid selection changes, requiring explicit handling through MainVariableGridPlugin to recycle controls accurately.

Yes, you can use the DataUiGrid to edit element properties, states, and behaviors within Gum, utilizing the grid's architecture to manage state-referencing members and synchronize multi-select updates.

Relying on MainVariableGridPlugin for UI state management limits full grid rebuilds, as its control recycling and expansion preservation mechanisms can interfere with rendering fresh element properties during debugging.
