You can modify the Performance Call Graph display
so that you can find information more easily.
Prerequisite: Display the preference page for the Performance
Call Graph: Select . In the Preference page navigator, expand Profiling
and Logging, and expand the Appearance node.
Click Performance Call Graph.
To change how information is displayed in the Performance
Call Graph view, perform any of the following steps:
- Click the Options tab, then choose Unweighted or Linear as
the way to display the lines that link nodes in the call graph. Choosing Unweighted displays
all lines the same, so that their thickness does not indicate anything about
performance. Choosing Linear displays the lines with
varying thickness, representing the time propagated from a method to the descendant
as a percentage of the total time of the current data set.
- Choose how to display method names. You can choose how
much identifying information to specify with the method name, as well as the
total length of the strings to be displayed.
- Choose how to display numerical values. You can set
the time units and the precision, as well as whether to include your system’s
default separator in the numerical display (for example, 1,000 or 1000).
- Click the Colors tab, then choose the colors
for call graph and overview elements: Click a Graph Colors item
or an Overview Colors item and assign a color to it
in the Colors window. Note that you can also change colors
directly from the Performance Call Graph by clicking the Graph Colors button
.
Note: You can recover default settings by clicking Restore
Defaults.
