| Defines 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.

| Radar Provider
| Defines 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.

| Exclusive Thresholds
| Defines 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.

|-
| Minimal Saccade Duration
| Defines 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.

'''ScanPath Analyzer element''' analyzes eye tracking or mouse movements and builds scanpath of fixations over duration of the parent event. The scanpath 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 scanpath development over a time.
