Methods and systems are provided for accessing, processing, and outputting data on a graphical output device for a user is provided. In one implementation, a method is provided that comprises presenting on the graphical output device a first portion of a data object in a window, wherein the data object contains a plurality of data object items, at least one of the data object items being sought by the user, and wherein the data object contains more data object items than being presentable in the window at a given moment in time. The method may further include providing on the graphical output device first and second control elements in relation to the presented data object, the first and second control elements being arranged to be activated by means of a user-operated input device in order to generate first and second request signals, respectively, upon such activation. Further, the method comprises effecting, upon generating respective first or second request signals, a scroll step into a direction corresponding to the respectively generated first and second request signals having a predetermined step size towards the data object item sought by the user, and presenting another portion of the data object in the window at least partially differing from the first portion of the data object, the step size between subsequently presented portions of the data object decreasing in proportion with the number of generated first or second request signals to effect a series of one or more scroll steps towards the sought data object item among the data object items.
