Abstract

The invention relates to a method and apparatus for choosing ranges from a scale of values in a user interface without the loss of detail or context while minimizing the real estate used on the user interface. The invention, more particularly, relates to a method and apparatus for selecting, viewing and/or analyzing one or more range selections from an extended domain of values on a displayable shape.
