I am new to kendo treeView. Can we automatically scroll the treeview to get the node in the current viewport. I have create a sample to show the issue JSBin Sample

I'm not sure if the treeView has that option, but you can create an event handler for the "select" event, and then handle the scrolling yourself.

var treeview = $("#tree").kendoTreeView({
  select: function(e) {
    var eleTop = $(e.node).offset().top;
    var treeScrollTop = $("#tree").scrollTop();
    var treeTop = $("#tree").offset().top;
    $("#tree").animate({
      scrollTop: (treeScrollTop + eleTop) - treeTop
    });
  },
  dataSource:[
    { expanded:true, text: "Furniture", items: [
      { text: "Tables & Chairs" },
      { text: "Sofas" },
      { text: "Occasional Furniture" }
    ] },
    { expanded:true, text: "Decor", items: [
      { text: "Bed Linen" },
      { text: "Curtains & Blinds" },
      { text: "Carpets" }
    ] }
  ]    

});
var treeview = $("#tree").data("kendoTreeView");
// find the node with text "foo"
var decor = treeview.findByText("Decor");
treeview.select(decor);
treeview.trigger("select", {node: decor});

Note: When you use the treeview api to select a node, the event does not fire, so I fired it myself via trigger. I tested this in your bin and it worked fairly well. Tweak it for desired results.
