Abstract

A computer method includes determining a first geometric path of a first animation variable having a first range of values (260) and a second geometric path of a second animation variable having a second range of values (250), automatically determining a target display size for the display of the first geometry path and the second geometry path, automatically determining a first scaling factor in respons to the target display size and the first range of values (260), automatically determining a second scaling factor, different from the first scaling factor in response to the target display size and the second range of values (250), display a portion of the first geometry path on the display, vertically scaled in response to the first display scaling factor; and displaying a portion of the second geometric path on the display, vertically scaled in response to the second display scaling factor.
