Abstract: A computer displays data sources associated with tables of data. The computer also displays a tree of data object icons, each representing a logical combination of tables. While displaying the data sources and the data object icons, the computer detects a portion of an input on a candidate data object icon. In response, the computer determines linking fields corresponding to a neighboring data object icon and linking fields corresponding to the candidate object icon. The computer displays options for a user to select linking fields. In response to detecting selection of linking fields, the computer validates the selection and/or updates the tree of data object icons based on the selected linking fields.

Abstract: A computer displays data sources associated with tables of data. The computer also displays data object icons, each representing a logical combination of tables. While displaying the data sources and the data object icons, the computer detects a portion of an input on a table. In response, the computer generates a candidate data object icon corresponding to the table. The computer also detects another portion of the input on the candidate data object icon. In response, the computer moves the candidate object icon towards the data object icons, while providing a visual cue connecting the candidate object icon to a neighboring data object icon. The computer detects yet another portion of the input, and, in response, displays a connection between the candidate object icon and the neighboring data object icon, and updates the tree of the one or more data object icons to include the candidate data object icon.

Abstract: Utilizing a scrollbar handle for both zooming and panning a display comprising items in a user interface may be accomplished by monitoring an input device's interaction with the scrollbar handle. If the scroll handle is dragged in a direction away from an orientation of the scroll handle in the scrollbar, a display area zoom function can be activated. The zoom function allows a viewbox, comprising content, to be rescaled as a function of the distance the scroll handle is dragged. A displaybox can be created that distinguishes an area of the viewbox from the remainder of the display, which corresponds to content in the viewbox that would be displayed in normal zoom if the scroll handle were released at that location. Further, upon detecting that the scroll handle is released, the display area can zoom to a view of the content inside the distinguished area.
