<p>A system and method are presented for aggregating and displaying information that relates to items in an engineering design. A system for designing engineering projects filters components of interest to a user, then collects data pertaining to the components from a set of databases that may be associated with mutually incompatible applications. The system presents, in a simple manner, an integrated display of the component properties and visual representations of the filtered components, both in isolation and in context. Multiple filtered components may be scrolled using a scrolling device such as a mouse wheel. The visual representations may be cropped with a resizable crop box, and non-selected components outside the crop box may have varying levels of opacity.</p> |
