ABSTRACT:
When displaying a plurality of data elements, region indicia, defined according to corresponding data types, are displayed. Data element indicia representative of the plurality of data elements are displayed within a plurality of regions defined by the region indicia according to the data types corresponding to each data element indicium. Additionally, relationship indicia representative of a plurality of relationships between at least a portion of the data elements may also be displayed. An initial or selected data element indicium is displayed in a focus region of the plurality of regions. At least a second data element indicium is displayed in one of the other regions. Thereafter, the second data element indicium may be selected for display in the focus region, thereby causing at least a portion of the region indicia to be redisplayed based on the second data element indicium being displayed in the focus region.
