....from the focus point. An alternative is to use a cartesian fisheye: the distance distortion is applied independently on the x and y directions before establishing the final position of the node (see again Figure 16) Other variations are possible. Consult the overview of Carpendale et al.[18] or Keahey et al. 77] for further examples and for their visual effects. The final choice should depend on the style of the graph to be explored as well as the layout algorithm in use. This simple but powerful technique is an important form of navigation that complements zoom and pan. However, ....
....limited 3D navigation facilities. The main goal of mapping objects onto a sphere or an ellipsoid is indeed to achieve a focus context distortion. More complex surfaces (such as 3D surfaces of blended Gaussian curves) have also been used to achieve focus context effects (see Carpendale et al. 17] [18]) Other 3D visualization techniques, already cited in Section 2.4 (such as the Perspective Wall[107] apply this principle as well. The hyperbolic layout is special because it is a graph layout algorithm that was developed with the focus context distortion in mind. In fact, we do not know of ....

....of shading and grid lines are used to alleviate disorientation effects. This is important for certain applications (such as maps) where the distortion may not always be directly visible. Their approach has been extended to include graph folding for eliding non interesting parts of the graph [25]. The metaphor used by 3DPS is a nice one: detail is increased decreased by pulling pushing a focus towards away from the user. Keahey and Robertson describe a similar approach using nonlinear magnification fields [70] A metaphorical description which provides a unifying theory for all of these ....
