Summary:
The Tree does not show the current page

Detailed description

The use can use the tree pane to jump to any page in the user manual. However, he cannot locate his current location in the tree so easily.
Of course, the heading of the page AND the breadcrumb strip show the current location. But it is not easy to spot that location in the tree (especially for a new user).

This situation arises when the user has followed a few hyperlinks in the page, and now he is lost.

For example, try to find this page in the tree: Doc:2.5/Manual/Render/Cameras

Suggestions:

1. In the tree, show the current node with bold (and if possible, slightly larger-) font. (Just like Acrobat Reader).
2. Make the current node visible: Open its parent node (if it is collapsed), and slide the tree up/down to bring this node in the visible range.

IN thecurrent implementation this is not easy to fix, will have to wait a bit.
