Abstract
A graphical user interface in a database application includes a control for manipulating a result set of a query. The control is operable to display multiple graphical representations of a result ratio between a total number of rows in a database table returned in response to the query and a total number of rows of the database table. By interacting with the control, the user can switch (e.g., toggle) between graphical representations of the result ratio. The toggling can be achieved by automatically creating supplemental queries to the database. The graphical representations can be a pie chart, bar chart, eye chart or any other graphical representation that is suitable for displaying the result ratio.
