Abstract
Selected data is temporarily formatted and charted to assist a user in visualizing the selected data without the user having to manually create the display of the charted data. Once the temporary formatting and charting is automatically applied to the selected data, a user may interact with the visual formatting and charts to gain additional information. For example, the chart may be formatted differently, reference lines may be added, the chart may be sorted, the type of chart(s) displayed may be changed, the user may graphically navigate over the chart to obtain more detailed information, and the like. Once the user has completed interacting with the temporarily formatted and created chart(s) the visualizations are removed from the display.
