ABSTRACT:
The invention comprises a visual search and retrieval system and method. At least one viewing window is provided on a screen. The viewing window has a first and second pane. The first pane provides a global view of digitally stored information and the second pane provides a local view of the digitally stored information. The first pane has first indicia which indicate results of a search performed by a user and the second pane has a second indicia which also indicate the results of the search performed by the user. The second indicia corresponds substantially to the first indicia.
