PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL

摘要

TECHNOLOGIES ARE DESCRIBED HEREIN FOR PROVIDING A PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL (210) IN CONJUNCTION WITH A TIMELINE (208) FOR NAVIGATING PROJECT SCHEDULE DATA IN A PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION (128). THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION (128) DISPLAYS A PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL (210) IN CONJUNCTION WITH A PROJECT SCHEDULE TIMELINE, WITH THE PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL AT A POSITION AND OF A SIZE RELATIVE TO THE TIMELINE THAT REFLECTS THE TEMPORAL SCOPE (206) OF PROJECT SCHEDULE DATA (204) CURRENTLY DISPLAYED. THE PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL (210) IS CONFIGURED TO ALLOW A USER TO MOVE AND RESIZE THE CONTROL ALONG THE TIMELINE. UPON DETECTING MOVEMENT OR RESIZING OF THE PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL, THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION (128) WILL CHANGE THE SCOPE OF THE PROJECT SCHEDULE DATA (204) DISPLAYED TO MATCH THE TIME PERIOD REPRESENTED BY THE NEW POSITION AND/OR NEW SIZE OF THE PAN AND ZOOM CONTROL (210) IN RELATION TO THE TIMELINE (208).
