  • Patent number: 11169652
    Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product modifies a viewing controller widget. A computer system receives an area defining user input that defines an area of a graphical user interface, where the area defining user input draws a geometric shape on the graphical user interface in order to define the area of the graphical user interface; captures an event management user input within the geometric shape on the graphical user interface; displays an event management viewer on the graphical user interface, where the event management viewer presents past user events that modified features of the viewing controller widget; receives a user selection of a previous event from the event management viewer; and modifies one or more features of the viewing controller widget based on the user selection of the previous event from the event management viewer.
