Abstract
Systems, methods, and other embodiments associated with automatically controlling a zoom level are described. In one embodiment, a method includes accessing a database and retrieving a plurality of data records based on at least one match parameter, wherein each data record is assigned to an employee and includes a scheduled time range in a work day for the employee. The data records are parsed and a minimum time and a maximum time from the scheduled time ranges are determined. The method controls a zoom level for a display for displaying the scheduled time ranges from the plurality of data records by determining a screen area in a user interface for displaying the scheduled time ranges, and generating a graphical timeline to fit between the minimum time and the maximum time and adjust a size of the graphical timeline based at least in part on the determined screen area.
