## Telemetry view section |

The telemetry view section shows a number of historic graphs which display cumulated information about the profiled JVM.

| There are five views in this section: Heap Shows the maximum heap size and the amount of used and free space in it. This view can be displayed as a line graph or area graph. Objects Shows the total number of objects on the heap, divided into arrays and non-arrays. This view can be displayed as a line graph or area graph. Note that this view only displays recorded objects and is unavailable if no objects have been recorded so far. Objects that have been recorded are tracked even after recording has been stopped. Garbage collector Shows the activity of the garbage collector which comprises one line for the objects freed and another line for the objects moved. The plotted values are time rates, so the total numbers in a time interval are given by the area under the respective lines. Note that this view only displays recorded objects and is unavailable if no objects have been recorded so far. Objects that have been recorded are tracked even after recording has been stopped. Classes Shows the total number of classes loaded by the JVM, divided into filtered and unfiltered classes. This view can be displayed as a line graph or area graph. Threads Shows the total number of alive threads in the JVM, divided into active and inactive threads. This view can be displayed as a line graph or area graph.

| The graph type is a persistent view setting separate for each view and is thus also accessible through the VM telemetry view settings dialog. Where possible, switching between line and area graph is done by Choosing View->Graph type->Line graph or View->Graph type->Area graph from JProfiler's main menu. Choosing Line graph or Area graph from the context menu. Choosing `Line graph` or `Area graph` in the VM telemetry view settings dialog. When a view is shown as an area graph, the line which shows the total value is given by the upper bound of the filled area while the single contributions are shown as stacked area segments.

| When you move the mouse across a telemetry view, the time at the position of the mouse cursor and the corresponding value on the vertical axis will be shown in JProfiler's status bar. The current value of each data line is always shown next to the corresponding legend entry.

| The VM telemetry views have two different display modes. The display mode is a persistent view setting and is also accessible through the VM telemetry view settings dialog. fixed time scale If you are currently in the "scale to fit window" mode, you can switch to this mode by choosing the scale mode selector button in the lower right corner of the view. choosing View->Scale to fit window from JProfiler's main menu. choosing Scale to fit window from the context menu. checking `Scale to fit window` in the VM telemetry view settings dialog. In this mode, the time scale on the time axis does not change with time and the time axis can be scrolled with the scrollbar on the bottom which appears if the total time span does not fit into the current view size. If the current time is visible, the view is in auto-follow mode where the time axis is scrolled automatically when new data arrives to always show the current time. If you are not in auto-follow mode, because you scrolled back in time, just move the scrollbar to the right end of the time scale to re-enable auto-following. You can adjust the scale of the time axis by zooming in or out. Zooming in increases the level of detail while zooming out decreases it. You change the zoom level by using the zoom controls in the lower right corner of the view. choosing View->Zoom in and View->Zoom out from JProfiler's main menu. choosing Zoom in and Zoom out from the context menu. scale to fit window If you are currently in the "fixed time scale" mode, you can switch to this mode by choosing the scale mode selector button in the lower right corner of the view. choosing View->Continue at fixed scale from JProfiler's main menu. choosing Continue at fixed scale from the context menu. unchecking `Scale to fit window` in the VM telemetry view settings dialog. The time scale on the time axis is adjusted continuously in order to show the total time span in the current size of the view. Zooming is not possible in this mode.

| Horizontal and vertical grid lines of the VM telemetry views can be configured in the VM telemetry view settings dialog.
