Tree Configuration

Parameter Information


Distance Threshold

This floating point parameter indicates the smallest distance that will be represented on the tree. If a node distance falls below this threshold the representation for that node will have a height of zero. Using this option one can essentially combine low level elements that are very close together to appear as members of a single node.

Minimum Pixel Distance

This integer is the minimum height of a node in the tree in units of pixels. Nodes which are close and would ordinarily have a node height below this value are forced to appear this number of pixels above the lower level node.

Maximum Pixel Distance

Maximum Pixel Distance (integer) is the maximum distance that any node can have. Nodes which are distant and would ordinarily have a node height greater than this value are constrained to appear this number of pixels above the lower level node.
