Menumanager: Load parant items for pages under parent

[treshr]

I don't know how to solve this problem and I hope somebody knows it overhere.

I'll illustrate my problem a bit. My website lloks like this:
1. Homepage
1.1 Page 1.1
1.2 Page 1.2
1.3 Page 1.3
2. News
2.1 Page 2.1
2.2 Page 2.2

I want the menumanager to display only the pages from the parent. So if somebody clicks on "Homepage" it only shows a submenu with the underlying pages. The same with the news page.

Now I only get the whole pagestructure or if I click a child the menu disappears so I can't navigate further.

So my question is: How does the template look if I only want the childs to show and that I don't see the childs from other parents.

Thanx in advance.

Enter a collapse number in your template?

{menu template='simple_navigation.tpl' collapse='1'}

This is the behavior of the default install menu on the home page and most all the other pages...
