Inheritance diagram

The following diagram shows inheritance relationships for this type. Unresolved types are missing from the diagram.

Extends

Name	Type	Description
PathVisualizerBase	simple module	This is a base module for path visualizer simple modules. It keeps track of active routes in a network. A route between two node is considered active if a packet is sent recently between their corresponding layers. Active routes are not displayed by default, see the module parameters for how to enable the visualization. The actual visualization of active routes is done in derived modules.

Parameters

Name	Type	Default value	Description
visualizationTargetModule	string	"^"	module path relative to the visualizer which determines where the visualization should appear in the user interface, parent module by default
visualizationSubjectModule	string	"^"	module path relative to the visualizer which determines what part of the simulation model the visualizer displays in the user interface, parent module by default
tags	string	""	tag added to each visualization for disambiguation in the runtime environment
displayRoutes	bool	false	display polyline arrow for active routes, disabled by default
startPathSignal	string	"packetFlowStarted"
extendPathSignal	string	"packetReceivedFromLower"
endPathSignal	string	"packetFlowEnded"
nodeFilter	string	"*"	which nodes are considered, matches all nodes by default
packetFilter	object	"*"	which packets are considered, matches all packets by default
lineColor	string	"dark"	route color is a list of colors, a set of dark colors by default
lineStyle	string	"dashed"	route line style (solid, dashed, dotted)
lineWidth	double	3	route line width
lineSmooth	bool	false	when true polylines are displayed as curves
lineShift	double	16	route line shift to avoid overlapping routes
lineShiftMode	string	"normal"	determines how overlapping lines are shifted, possible values are: normal, x, y, z; optional prefix + or -
lineContactSpacing	double	3	spacing between arrow end and submodule icon
lineContactMode	string	"rectangular"	determines how arrows are clipped at the submodules
labelFormat	string	"%L %p pk (%l)"	determines what path data is displayed
labelFont	string	", 8px"	label font, automatic by default
labelColor	string	""	label color, same as line by default
fadeOutMode	string	"realTime"	specifies how inactive routes fade out
fadeOutTime	double	0s	how quickly inactive routes fade away, 1 second by default
fadeOutAnimationSpeed	double	0	animation speed while there are active routes, value must be in the range (0, +inf)
zIndex	double	4	determines the drawing order of figures relative to other visualizers
