Abstract
Among other things, one or more techniques and/or systems are provided for maintaining an information bar associated with a visualization. The visualization may correspond to an interface configured to display one or more entities (e.g., a map interface may display location entities, such as coffee shops, and/or direction entities, such as portions of a route, within a map). Responsive to the visualization being populated, the information bar may be populated with one or more information panels corresponding to the one or more entities. For example, a first information panel may comprise coffee specials and hours of operation for a first coffee shop entity populated within the visualization. Responsive to a selection of an entity within the visualization, a corresponding information panel may (automatically) be scrolled to and/or highlighted within the information bar. In this way, the information bar may display information panels corresponding to entities of the visualization.
