Abstract: Displaying a visual representation of table, including generating a visual representation of a table including a plurality of dimensions, displaying the visual representation of the table, where a first dimension value corresponding to one of the plurality of dimensions is collapsed when the table is initially generated, and a second dimension value corresponding to one of the plurality of dimensions is expanded such that sub-dimension values for the first dimension value are not visible, and sub-dimension values for the second dimension value are visible, detecting that a user has placed a first dimension value manipulator corresponding to said first dimension value into an expand mode, and in response to detecting the first dimension value manipulator is in an expand mode, expanding the first dimension value in the displayed visual representation of the table such that the sub-dimension values for the first dimension value are visible.
