The Performance Counters dialog lets you choose which performance counters are displayed. You can choose from among gDEBugger's, Windows' and vendor-specific graphic boards (NVIDIA and 3DLabs currently).
Displays the available counters as a tree. The tree contains gDEBugger, 3Dlabs, NVIDIA and Win32 counters, those supported by gDEBugger.
When the 3Dlabs tree node is empty, either:
a. You are not using supported 3Dlabs hardware.
b. You are not using a 3DLabs supported driver.
When the NVIDIA tree node is empty, either:
a. You are not using supported NVIDIA hardware.
b. You are not using the NVIDIA Instrumented driver.
c. The performance counters are not selected in the NVPerfKit.
A detailed description of each counter is available under the Available Counters tree when the counter is selected.
To add a counter, select a counter / counters from the Available Counters tree and add it to the Active Counters list by double clicking on it or by pressing the "Add" button.
To remove a Performance Counter, select the counter from the Active Counters list and remove it by double clicking on it or by pressing the "Remove" button.
Press the "Remove All" button to remove all of the Performance Counters.
Lets you change the scale factor of the displayed counter. Changing the scale factor enables you to view counter values bigger than 100 in the Performance Graph view. Note: scaling affects the counter graph display but not the counter value.
Selecting "Auto Scale" sets the scale factor on the fly to the lowest appropriate scale, keeping the highest recorded counter value in the [0,100] range. This ensures that all recorded counter values within the Performance Graph view are displayed.
