Pro DC - how to synchronizing bookmarks shown with page selected?

I  have inherited a large PDF with thousands of pages that someone previously bookmarked. I am going through the doc page by page, and updaing the bookmark descriptions. It would be an enormous help if Pro would "synchrnize" the bookmarks with the pages; i.e., as I go from page 1 to page 9,000, have Pro show the bookmark for each page.  This would essentially be the reverse of how bookmarks show the page they relate to.

 

I have used Pro for many, many years. But since the huge changes that came (10 years ago?) with DC, I have found things in it very hard to figure out. So I am hoping there is a setting somewhere in it I can turn on, and not that there is no way to have Pro show the bookmark related to the page selected.

At the bookmarks use the option "Expand Current Bookmarks"

Thanks, but how does Expand Current Bookmarks keep my bookmarks synchronized with the pages?  When I  click on a bookmark, Adobe shows the page that's bookmarked. But if I scroll down from page 1 through the other 9000 pages, the bookmarks don't scroll down too. Or I go to a speicic page, the bookmarks do not jump to the one for that page.  How do I make Adobe "synchronize" bookmarks shown with the pages selected?

Thx
