Nesting Sources

How does one create sources so that they nest?

I would like it to appear as this in the Configure Hero window:

Code:
User Content
  -Publisher Source
    -Line of books Source
      -Book Source

For the life of me I have not been able to figure it out and my forum search-fu is weak if it has been answered before. :(
 
Source files are created in raw XML. Do you have any 3rd party content in hero lab? If so, look for the .1st file. Then open it in a text editor to see the source file structure.

Here's an example from one of my custom content files to illustrate it:

Code:
  <source
    id="pWoD"
    name="World of Darkness Supplements"
    selectable="no"
    parent="UserParent"
    sortorder="0"
    description="World of Darkness Supplement Books">
    </source>
  <source
    id="Armory2"
    name="Armory"
    selectable="yes"
    parent="pWoD"
    sortorder="0"
    description="Missing Content from Armory">
    </source>

Bear in mind that my files usually have a lot of sources (one for each subcategory that isn't selectable) and one per book.
