View list panel

The View List panel lists all the views for the selected site, and offers access to the view control menus.

View tab

The View tab is the default tab when the Network Monitor first opens. It shows a visual map of selected threads and provides complete control over them. View tab colors apply to the individual route lines.

The depth color is automatically applied to the route lines on the View tab.

For example, if the queue depth is two each of connections and routes, then this is four in the total per-thread queue. These can be another color.

List tab

The List tab shows a table that lists all the threads in the current view, with information about each thread.

The entry for each thread includes:

  • Thread name.
  • Thread status. Icons provide a quick indication of thread status.
  • Volume. This is the number of messages processed by the thread during the current session.
  • Depth. This is the number of messages in the thread's message queue.

Grid tab

The Grid view shows the thread name and status, protocol status, depth number and color bars that indicate the protocol status (optional) and depth.

The current depth color is based on a summary of the thread depth and route depth. The thread depth number is the depth of the thread. The route depth number is the summary of the route depth from the target thread.

In a cell, the tip box shows the detail depth information as follows:

  • Thread: thread_name
  • Thread Depth: thread_depth_number
  • Route Depth: route_depth_number

The thread depth and route depth are displayed separately.

In each cell, from left to right, are shown the thread status icon. This is followed by the thread name, protocol status,with optional protocol status color underline, and depth number. The color of the line under the depth number represents the depth color setting.

Thread names that are too long are truncated.

The more threads there are, the more columns there are, with a maximum of eight columns. In these cases, the thread name could be truncated.

Double-clicking in a grid cell opens the Status Report dialog box for that thread.
