Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for creating a plurality of data-bound graphic objects using an existing graphic object displayed within a graphical user interface. A visual property of an existing graphic object is selected and associated with a selected variable identified from a received data set. The data has a plurality of observations, each with a variable value for the selected variable. Once associated, additional graphic objects are created or adjusted to correspond to the observations in the data such that the additional graphic objects and the initial graphic object represent each observation in the data set. Further, property values of the selected visual property for each graphic object are determined by variable values of corresponding observations. Accordingly, the graphic objects have different appearances reflecting different variable values for all the observations in the data set.
