1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program configured to cause a processor to generate a user interface on a display device associated with the processor, the user interface comprising:
- a grid including rows and columns;
a viewport that displays only a portion of the grid;
a plurality of cells each having a specific position in one of the rows and one of the columns of the grid, a first one of the cells being related to a second one of the cells that is positioned in a different one of the rows and a different one of the columns of the grid from the first cell, the viewport being configured to display, upon selection of the first or second cell, a visual representation of the relationship in the viewport between the first cell and the second cell; and
a related-cells indicator displayed in the first cell, the related-cells indicator configured to display a number representing the number of other cell(s), including the second cell, to which the first cell is related.

Abstract
User interfaces for displaying relationships between cells in a grid. In one example embodiment, a user interface includes a grid including rows and columns and a plurality of cells each having a specific position in the grid. A first one of the cells is related to a second one of the cells. The grid is configured to display, upon selection of the first cell or second cell, a visual representation of the relationship between the first cell and the second cell.

4. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program configured to cause a processor to generate a user interface on a display device associated with the processor, the user interface comprising:
-
a grid including rows and columns; a viewport that displays only a portion of the grid; a plurality of cells each having a specific position in one of the rows and one of the columns of the grid, a first one of the cells being related to a second one of the cells that is positioned in a different one of the rows and a different one of the columns of the grid from the first cell such that the first cell and the second cell are not capable of being displayed in the viewport at the same time, the viewport being configured to display, upon selection of the first cell displayed in the viewport, a completely visible visual representation in the viewport of the relationship between the first cell and the second cell; and a related-cells indicator displayed in the first cell, the related-cells indicator configured to display a number representing the number of other cell(s), including the second cell, to which the first cell is related. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17)
