The Data Display page allows you to specify how data is shown on all the data displays.

 

 

 

Numerical data format

 

Numeric data on the displays can contain some pretty big values, up to 2^64-1 if needed!

 

Long values are hard to read without grouping digits. To improve readability Performance Validator can delimit each group of three digits, so 1234567 becomes 1,234,567 for example.

 

•No separators / Use separators Choose whether to group digits

 

 

The format used to delimit digit groups is set to User Default, which uses your computer's current locale, but you can change the format to suit another language if you wish.

 

•Language Format numbers according to the default locale, or choose another language

 

 

Numerical data alignment

 

Numeric data on the displays can be aligned left or right, with right aligned numbers being more easily compared.

 

•Left alignment / Right alignment Choose preferred alignment

 

 

Embedding visit counts in the source code

 

The source code displayed on several of the main tabs can show a colour-coded visit count or total time in-lined to the left of the source code.

 

You can choose a colour to display these statistics to distinguish them from the code and line numbers.

With embedded statistics:

 

 

In the above example, the function qsCompFunc has been visited 327,778 times and for a total of 201.91ms, the time unit being defined by the time format.

 

 

•Display visit count statistics Choose whether to include the visit count

 

If displayed (the default), you can choose a preferred text colour, and a width for the column:

 

•Visit count Set your preferred colour

 

•Automatically update width (for visit count) Choose whether to auto adjust the column width as numbers increase

 

If the width is set not to be automatically updated, choose a preferred width for the column:

 

•Visit width Change the column width

 

 

Similar settings are repeated for the total time statistics:

 

•Display total time statistics Choose whether to include the total time

 

If displayed (the default), you can choose a preferred text colour, and a width for the column:

 

•Total time Set your preferred colour

 

•Automatically update width (for total time) Choose whether to auto adjust the column width as numbers increase

 

If the width is set not to be automatically updated, choose a preferred width for the column:

 

•Total width Change the column width
