Manipulating Visual Representations of Data

Technologies relating to manipulating visual representations of data. A method is provided that includes displaying a first visual representation including a zoom parameter having a first value; receiving a first input while maintaining a first position of a cursor relative to the first visual representation; modifying the zoom parameter to have a second value, where the first visual representation of the document is adjusted according to the second value to provide a second visual representation; identifying a change in position of the cursor to a second position relative to the second visual representation; receiving a second input to modify the zoom parameter of the second visual representation; and modifying the zoom parameter to have a third value, where the second visual representation of the document is adjusted relative to the second position of the cursor according to the third value to provide a third visual representation of the document.
