Properties

Generic Properties

NameProperty descriptionConstraintsTypeUpon change
General Plot Settings
Show Axis Boolean
Adaptive Resizing Boolean
Rendering SizeDefines the size of the generated XAML staircase plot in pixels. The plot is automatically stretched on rendering, but a larger rendering size improves the chart quality with some cost in performance. The rendering size is also used as the resulting image resolution, when the chart is saved into a file.clSize
Show Gridlines Boolean
Add Screen Clone enum
High-Quality Rendering Boolean
Plot Theme enum
Heatmap Plot Settings
Plot Title String
Heatmap Opacity Double
Heatmap Scale Double
Gaussian Kernel Size Double
Heatmap Palette enum
Results
Heatmap FormatDefine a data format for the exported heatmap data.enHeatmapDataFormat
Heatmap DataReturn the 2D double array containing cell values of the recorded heatmap. The format of cell value is defined by the Heatmap Format property.Double
Reset Heatmap NowRuntime command that resets the recorded heatmap and plot. Assign 'true' in the snippets to invoke this command at runtime.Boolean
XAML Heatmap PlotReturns a live XAML control that can be used for direct binding to the Content property of the XAML ContentControl element, e.g. ContentControl with a generated staircase plot can be added to the status screen or to the XAML Layout element.UIElement
Save Plot NowAssign a filename to save the generated plot at runtime.String
Save Data NowAssign a filename to save the heatmap data at runtime.String
Review PlotOpen a window with the plot previewBoolean
Video Results
Video Capturing Boolean
Video EncoderDefines an encoder that will handle video compression for the recorded videos. The list contains all video encoders installed in OS.enum
Configure EncoderOpens a configuration dialog of the selected video encoder (of supported).Boolean
Frame Rate Int32
Output FolderOpens a dialog for selecting a local folder to store recorded videos.String
Detection Results
Fixation Number Int32
Gaze Processing
Radar ProviderDefines which of the radar providers is used for positional input in this event. In each experiment, the radar providers includes the system mouse and all tracker elements. The selected radar provider controls the Radar Point property and input to the AOI elements in this event. When 'Auto' is chosen, the first tracker element is picked up. If there are no tracker elements, the system mouse is used by default.enum
AOI enum
Sampling RateDefines the sampling rate of the tracker hardware in Hz. You can keep the zero value for auto-detection.Double
Exclusive ThresholdsDefines whether the exclusive velocity and saccade thresholds are used by this element. The default value is false, which means that the same threshold values are shared with all eye-tracking analysis elements.Boolean
X Velocity ThresholdDefines the saccade velocity threshold for the X-axes.Double
Y Velocity ThresholdDefines the saccade velocity threshold for the Y-axes.Double
Minimal Saccade DurationDefines the minimal duration threshold (in ms.) for the velocity-based saccade detection. If a saccade candidate shorter than the threshold, it's discarded after completion. Note that, the element can still be triggered at the start and peak velocity of the discarded saccades, when the triggering mode is not 'On the saccade end'. If you do not want to apply the minimal duration threshold, set the zero value.Double
Maximal Saccade DurationDefines the maximal duration threshold (in ms.) for the velocity-based saccade detection. If a candidate saccade shorter than the threshold, it's discarded after completion. Note that, the element can still be triggered at the start and peak velocity of the discarded saccades, when the triggering mode is not 'On the saccade end'. If you do not want to apply the maximal duration threshold, set the zero value.Double

The HeatMap Analyzer element analyzes eye tracking or mouse movements and builds heatmap of fixations over duration of the parent event. The heatmap can be monitored on a real-time plot and later exported into a bitmap or numerical data file. The elements also allows recording a video of heatmap development over a time.
