Is there some way to have all sliders expanded by default in a Manipulator object, i.e. as if I had clicked all "+" signs?

    $\begingroup$ Are you trying to do Manipulator[Dynamic[x], {0, 1}, Appearance -> { "Open", "Labeled"}] ? $\endgroup$ Commented Oct 22, 2012 at 15:52

As David Slater comments you can specify this with the Appearance option:

Manipulate[x, {{x, 0}, 0, 1, Appearance -> {"Open"}}]

From the documentation on Manipulate:

To get the "Open" setting globally, by analogy with this answer:

SetOptions[Manipulator, Appearance -> "Open"]
