A method at an electronic device with a touch-sensitive surface and a display includes displaying a first chart on the display. The first chart concurrently displays a first set of categories and each respective category has a corresponding visual mark displayed in the first chart. The method further includes detecting a first touch input at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a location on the display of a first visual mark for a first category in the first chart, and, in response to detecting the first touch input, removing the first category and the first visual mark from the first chart via an animated transition, and updating display of the first chart. The first visual mark moves in concert with movement of a finger contact in the first touch input during at least a portion of the animated transition.
