Maybe you want something like this:

    if (gtk_ctree_node_is_visible(GTK_CTREE(tree), tnode)
        != GTK_VISIBILITY_FULL)
    {
        GtkCTreeNode *pnode;
        
        pnode = GTK_CTREE_ROW(tnode)->parent;
        while (pnode != NULL)
        {
            gtk_ctree_expand(GTK_CTREE(tree), pnode);
            pnode = GTK_CTREE_ROW(pnode)->parent;
        }
    }
    gtk_ctree_node_moveto(GTK_CTREE(tree), tnode, 0, 0, 0);
    gtk_ctree_select(GTK_CTREE(tree), tnode);
