Abstract
A mobile device is fitted with an extended reality (XR) software application program executing on a processor within an XR system. A data visualization application receives a selection of a dashboard panel, and automatically places the dashboard panel relative to other dashboard panels displayed on a work surface in the XR environment. The work surface may be in the form of a rectangular or cylindrical surface. The dashboard panels may be arranged on a series of horizontal and/or vertical “rails” that appear as rows or columns, respectively, of dashboard panels on the work surface. A user can select and move the dashboard panels on a particular rail, while not affecting the position of the dashboard panels on the remaining rails. Further, the data visualization application generates a telescoping time selection graphical element that includes multiple segments with different granularities of time for concurrently selecting a time and date range.
