Composition of Visualization Paradigms ====================================== Fisheye treemaps ---------------- Traditionally, you can select a node in a treemap to become a new root node. But then you lose context. Try a fisheye view (non-linear magnification) to see details without losing context. Seamless multi-level view: define discrete levels of detail of information. Global and local magnification ------------------------------ Pan & zoom: intuitive, arbitrarily high level of zoom. Lose context when zoomed in; lose detail when zoomed out. Compose non-linear magnification to aid navigation. Interactively probe regions at about 10x magnification without loss of context before committing to full zoom. Fisheye up to any scale. Collapse pan & zoom operations into a single probe operation. Smoothly transition from fisheye view to full zoom.
