Call Graph View Settings Dialog


  The call graph view settings dialog is accessed by bringing the call graph to front and choosing View->View Settings from JProfiler's main menu or clicking on the corresponding  toolbar button.
 
  • Show signature tooltips
    If checked, the signature of a method will be shown in a tooltip window when you move the mouse over it.
  • Color information
    This setting determines the meaning of the gray to red scale of the background color of node rectangles. It can be one of
    • Inherent time
    • Total time
  • Color scale base
    This setting determines the percentage base for calculating the background color of node rectangles. It can be one of
    • Displayed nodes only. If this setting is checked, the coloring of nodes changes as new nodes are expanded or added.
    • All nodes. If this setting is checked, the coloring stays the same as new nodes are expanded or added.
  • display threshold
    The display threshold below which nodes are ignored is entered in percent. Calls whose inherent time makes up less than that percentage are not shown in the method graph. If you raise the threshold, none of the currently displayed nodes are hidden. If you lower the threshold, nodes who do not have plus signs for expanding incoming and outgoing calls may get them again.

    To activate the threshold, you have to select the "Hide calls with less than ..." check box.

    This option allows you to trim down the call graph to the most important parts.
