According to one embodiment of the present invention, a computer system comprising at least one processor may generate a tabular object containing data about an object. The layout of such tabular object comprises rows and columns, and may have a structure that includes plural sets of dual columns, each set representing pairs of related data (e.g. property value pairs). The size and portion of the tabular object in view at any particular time are determined by the user's sizing and scrolling behavior. The assignment of object data (e.g., property value pairs) to the resulting cells in that tabular object takes place dynamically according to the size and portion of the tabular object being displayed at any particular time in a manner that optimizes the use of available space.
