Example embodiments described herein disclose a travel search machine configured to retrieve and present search results as graphical elements within a graphical user interface. The travel search machine presents graphical elements with a slider configured to define a subset of the search results, where the subset is defined by a location of the slider among the graphical elements within the graphical user interface, and is further configured to receive a user input that moves the slider from a first location in the graphical user interface to a second location in the graphical user interface and in response to the first user input, cause the user device to display a notification window in the graphical user interface at a position relative to the slider in the first location, the notification window indicating a count of search results within the subset of search results defined by the location of the slider.
