Is it possible to keep the dropdown menu of my personal help content from folding in after clicking on a subsection ?

The pull down menu of the help content i created for a personal toolbox is always folding in when i went some sections 'down' in the menu-structure and click on a subsection there. Is it possible to prevent this by some code in the helptoc.xml or info.xml file or somewhere else?

Also it would be great if the dropdown menu would fold out to the subsection i am reading at the moment, especially after clicking a link to another helpfile.(It's like that in the official MATLAB help browser.)

Thx for your help! Best regards Simon

Hi Simon,

I believe this is happening because the subsection that you are clicking on is actually a link to a new HTML page, and that page only has its own section expanded. In the MATLAB documentation, I could only have the subsection not collapse other open structures if it was not a link itself. You can tell because of both the blue highlighting as well as the link displayed in the bottom left corner of the documentation browser.

I was unable to create a "tocitem" in my own example that was not a link, however so I am not sure if there is a way to reproduce the main documentation behavior. I work for MathWorks and I have forwarded this request to the appropriate product team.

Hello Adam,

I am also facing the same issue of folding up of entire TOC when clicked on any lower level item.

Is there any update on this?
