Breadcrumb
The breadcrumb is a bar below the toolbar that shows the current map's position when you drilldown into the topic. You can return to the full map easily by clicking on the breadcrumb of the central topic.
Note: If you have added floating topic(s) after drilling down, these topic(s) will not be shown after you drill up. There will be a Drilldown icon on that branch root topic, which means there are some details not shown in that view. You can click it to drill down again and see them.
