Skip the line
<treeViewBrowseable>1</treeViewBrowseable>
(or set the value to 0)
The tree will always be shown fully expanded and not browsable - but it 
will be displayed...

I took a look at the code of function "getSingleField_selectTree" in 
class.tx_dam_tceFunc.php but I did not manage to work it out :-(

I added this issue to the bugtracker.
