    Abstract: A user of an application can affect the control structure of an application by changing a level of detail setting. When a level of detail is altered relative to a graphical region, additional information and functionality may become available, while previously displayed information and/or functionality for a different graphical region may become hidden or otherwise unavailable. A user may repeatedly enhance a level of detail at which a particular application region is shown by repeatedly using an appropriate user input command. The present disclosure does not simply change a user's view of an application, but changes the way the application itself functions in various embodiments when a level of detail is altered for a graphical region. Techniques described herein may apply to a web application, or to any other suitable computer application.
