Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention address deficiencies of the art in respect to tree representations of object hierarchies and provide a method, system and computer program product for large tree view navigation. In an embodiment of the invention, a tree view navigation method can be provided. The method can include selecting a node in a tree view of an object hierarchy, specifying filter text in a filter control for the selected node, and filtering a branch of nodes extending from the selected node to include only nodes including the filter text. In this way, despite a voluminous number of nodes in the branch, relevant nodes can be located flexibly and efficiently.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and computer program product are disclosed for enabling user interactions between user interface components. An initial event module detects an initial user input event to a graphical user interface. The initial user input event is associated with a user interaction between a source user interface component and a target user interface component that occupy separate event domains. A transparent component module places a transparent user interface component over the target user interface component in response to the initial user input event. The transparent user interface component occupies the same event domain as the source user interface component. An interaction event module detects an interaction user input event to the transparent user interface component that continues the user interaction.
