ABSTRACT:
A method of navigating and creating hierarchical documents is disclosed. The illustrative embodiments of the present invention enable a user to navigate quickly through multiple levels and sub-levels of hierarchical documents without having to manually change the displayed view. Additionally, the method enables a user to create connections between objects in different levels and sub-levels of hierarchical documents without manually changing the view. A user is able to start connections on one level and continue the connection into a sub-level that was initially hidden or collapsed without stopping.
