A method for object visualization includes providing an operator with an object filter tool through a graphical user interface, the tool comprising a rail having a number of shapes placed at distances from each other along the rail, the shapes representing divisions within a list of objects, distances between the shapes correlating to a number of objects between the divisions. The method further includes receiving from the operator, an interaction with the tool indicating a selection of objects within the list and presenting to the operator, a list of objects filtered based on the interaction with the filter tool.
