Call Tree Panel Settings

Applies to AQTime 8.81, last modified on January 18, 2022

The Call Tree panel offers several customizable settings. To check or modify them, use the Call Tree Options dialog. To call the dialog, do any of the following:

  • Right-click somewhere within the Call Tree panel and choose Customize from the context menu.

  • Select Options > Options from AQTime’s main menu and then choose Analysis Results > Call Tree on the left of the ensuing Options dialog.

  • Select Options from the context menu of the Call Tree panel.

  • Right-click Call Tree in Visual Studio’s Solution Explorer and select Properties from the context menu.

  • Select Tools > Options from the main menu of Visual Studio and then choose AQTime > Analysis Results > Call Tree on the left of the ensuing Options dialog.

  • Select Options from the context menu of the Call Tree panel.

  • Select AQTime > Options from the main menu of Embarcadero RAD Studio and then choose Analysis Results > Call Tree on the left of the ensuing Options dialog.

Note: If the Call Tree panel does not support the current profiler, the settings are disabled.

The following options are available:

  • Hide recursion - If this option is enabled, AQTime will not display recursive calls in the Call Tree panel which shortens the displayed paths. If this option is disabled, the recursive calls are shown.

  • Maximum call depth - Specifies the maximum number of calls that can be shown in the panel.

Three other options deal with critical paths. The critical path is the longest route in the Call Tree calculated by a particular criterion.

  • Auto-expand critical path to depth - If this option is enabled, AQTime expands nodes of the critical path automatically to the depth specified by the Auto-expand depth option.

  • Auto-expand depth - Specifies which depth AQTime will automatically expand for the critical path. This option is only meaningful when the Auto-expand critical path to depth setting is enabled.

  • If the Show critical path for column option is enabled, the Call Tree panel highlights the critical path (with bold) for the routines or objects it displays.
