In the functional view and structural view of the project browser, you can display a specific directory tree level by using the Zoom In command. You can apply this command in a level below the one you are in. This command is no longer available once you cannot expand the tree structure any further.

The Zoom Out command allows you to go back to the previous display of the project browser.
