Abstract
An object based computer system has viewers which may be directed around the object world of the system between semantic objects. The system includes a sequence object that has a path list specifying a path around a sequence of semantic objects of system. Each viewer can be linked to the sequence object to access the path list held by the latter, thereby enabling the viewer to follow the corresponding sequence of semantic objects, viewing each in turn.
