Body: <p>Please help me to display the categories. I have a category group with a huge category tree. Can I somehow output not the whole group of categories, but only a certain category with its child categories?
  My tree looks like this:</p>
  <pre><code>+ category 1 (cat_id=111)
  ++ subcategory 1-1
  ++ subcategory 1-2
  ++ subcategory 1-3
  + category 2 (cat_id=222)
  ++ subcategory 2-1
  ++ subcategory 2-2
  ++ subcategory 2-3
  </code></pre>
  <p>I want to get from my group only this:</p>
  <pre><code>+ category 2
  ++ subcategory 2-1
  ++ subcategory 2-2
  ++ subcategory 2-3
  </code></pre>
  <p>I try to do this to use this construction:</p>
  <pre><code>{% set categories = craft.categories().ancestorOf(222).ancestorDist(3).all() %}
  </code></pre>
  <p>I understand that this construction should take a category with ID 222 and output it and its descendants</p>
  <p>But this don't work. What i do wrong? ((</p>
