The allocation monitor view settings dialog is accessed by bringing the allocation monitor view to front and choosing Edit->View settings from JProfiler's main menu or clicking on the corresponding  toolbar entry. The context menu also gives access to the view settings dialog.

The view mode can be toggled with the cumulate allocations checkbox. This sets whether allocations should be cumulated to show all allocations below any method or not.

The allocations description options control the amount of information that is presented in the description of the method call. Always show fully qualified names If this option is not checked, class name are omitted in intra-class method calls which enhances the conciseness of the display. Always show signature If this option is not checked, method signatures are shown only if two methods with the same name appear on the same level.

The percentage calculation determines against what allocation numbers percentages are calculated. Absolute Percentage values show the contribution to the total number of allocations. Relative Percentage values show the contribution to the parent method. Whether the contribution is cumulated or not depends on the Cumulate allocations setting.
