Customizing the Navigation with portal:SiteMenu and portal:PageMenu

I have a request from a client for a custom version of the navigation.
Basic Site Hierarchy:

-Category1
----Topic1a
----Topic1b
-Category2
----Topic2a
----Topic2b
-Category3
----Topic3a
----Topic3b
-Category4
----Topic4a
----Topic4b

Standard Menu based on Site Map and PageMenu shows this:
-Category1
-Category2
----Topic2a
----Topic2b (selected page)
-Category3
-Category4

Customer wants this instead:
-Category2
----Topic2a
----Topic2b (selected page)

They do not want siblings of the selected Category to show, just the selected Category and its children when a Category page is selected.
If the user has selected a Topic page underneath a Category, they want siblings of the Topic to show, but not siblings of the parent Category.
Is there a way to accomplish this with the existing SiteMenu/PageMenu components of mojo?

Hi,

I recommend see the article Visual Partitioning, as well as all the article under Styling Menus.

Hope that helps,

Joe
