Abstract

A computer displays on a user interface a hierarchical view of the data within the tree structure. The tree structure includes a plurality of nodes. The computer receives input via the user interface that at least one node of the plurality of nodes has been selected, wherein the computer sets the at least one node that has been selected as an active node. Responsive to the at least one node that has been selected as an active node, the computer displays on the user interface a selectable display element including one or more navigation elements configured to navigate between sibling nodes, and the computer displays on the user interface data related to the active node.
