Abstract

Dynamically combining graphical information from multiple windows displayed in a graphical user interface includes displaying a first window including a first graphic representation of a first data set, and a second window including a second graphic representation of a second data set. An overlap condition is detected by constantly monitoring a boundary of the first window and a boundary of the second window. In response to detecting the overlap condition, the first data set and the second data set are processed to identify a first and second set of attributes of the first and second data sets, respectively. A third set of attributes is determined, whereby the third set of attributes is common to the first set of attributes and the second set of attributes. A third window including a third graphic representation is generated and displayed based on the first graphic representation and the third set of attributes.
