A computer system having a visual display which displays a selectable button and permits a user to quickly redisplay a previous visual display selected by the user is dislosed. The selectable button preferably contains a textual or graphical representation upon the face of the button which indicates the previous visual display.

The visual display of this invention allows the user to quickly and conveniently revert to a previous visual display by a single user operation utilizing a selectable button.
