Command entry: Track View 
Options menu
Auto Expand submenu
Auto Expand determines the behavior of the controller window display based on choices made from a submenu. To turn Auto Expand
off with a single click, choose Manual Navigation from the Options menu: The Auto Expand settings are then disregarded.
When you are working on a specific animation task, turn off the unnecessary options to focus the controller window on what
you need to see.
NoteThe default auto-navigation setting for the Dope Sheet editor auto-expands only to the node track for the currently selected
object. This reduces the number of tracks whose keys need to be displayed and also helps enforce the top-down workflow for
which the Dope Sheet editor is designed.
