A method for operating a display in a data processing system to provide a view of a portion of a data array on a display screen is disclosed. The method includes providing a first display window characterized by a first offset, a first horizontal gain, and a first vertical gain and receiving a feature input from a user indicating a selected feature in the first display window. The data processing system automatically provides a second display window characterized by a second offset and a second horizontal gain and a second vertical gain. The second offset, the second horizontal gain and the second vertical gain are chosen such that the feature is at a predetermined location in the second display window and the second horizontal gain and second vertical gain are chosen such that the selected feature occupies a predetermined portion of the second display window.

Method for automatically adjusting the magnification and offset of a display to view a selected feature

A method for operating a computer to develop a program having a GUI is disclosed. The method includes providing a program development system having an editing mode in which a user constructs a GUI and providing a graphical element that can be placed on a form as part of the GUI, the graphical element displaying data from the server while the program development system is in the editing mode. The parameters that control the connection and data transfer from the server can be provided in the properties section of the graphical element, and hence, no compilation of the underlying program is needed to verify the server connection and associated data.
