Abstract

See full text

A new interface and methods allow a new versatility both in both managing a database, and in presenting hierarchical database information in a more useful way. User marks are used to determine the visibility of the elements at the various hierarchical levels in a hierarchical directory structure of a database. Hence, the user marks are user hierarchical visibility marks. The user hierarchical visibility marks are automatically propagated to other elements in the structure according to a filter selected by the user, for example.
