Heatmap settings

Everything you can change about how the board looks: colours, low nodes, numbers, the Net column, velocity and more.

At a glance

The gear in the control bar opens Heatmap settings: colours, numbers, the board's look, the tooltip and motion.
Node % sets how nodes read (dollars or % of the King) and how small nodes are drawn.
Every board at once: these settings apply to the heatmap and every Multimap panel.
Remembered in this browser, with a reset that puts the defaults back.

A live preview at the top of the dialog shows each change before you close it.

Colours

Setting	Options
Palette	Classic (the standard look, default), Dusk (navy to gold, colour-blind friendly), Mono (size only, no hue).
Scale	Linear (default), Sqrt to lift mid-size nodes, Log to lift small nodes the most.
Domain	Board range (default) or Zero-centred, so zero always sits in the middle of the colours.

Setting	Options
Sign	± (default) or Abs to drop the minus signs. The colour still shows the sign.
Decimals	0·1·2·3
Text size	A slider from −4 to +4, or Auto (default) to fit the text to the column width.
Bold	Heavier numbers. Off by default.

Setting	Options
Board style	Glass (default) draws large nodes as tiles; Classic fills every cell edge to edge.
Tiles from	With Glass: the size, as a share of the King, from which a node becomes a tile (25% by default). While low nodes are dimmed or hidden it follows Min % King.
Row density	Compact·Normal·Comfortable
Spot line	The dashed line at the exact price between two strikes. On by default.
Net column	Bars of each strike's total beside the strikes: green to the right for positive, red to the left for negative. Off by default.
Info bar	The colour scale and the totals under each board. On by default.

Setting	Options
Tooltip	Turn the hover card off entirely. Clicking a node still opens its details.
Velocity rows	Which timeframes the hover card lists (1m, 5m and 10m by default).
Flash changes	Cells flash when they change by more than Flash at (25% by default). Off by default, and only on boards with one column per expiration.

Node % sits beside the gear because it changes how you read nodes at a glance. Its own preview and Reset cover just these settings.

Setting	Options
Read as	Value in dollars (default), or % King: each node as a share of the King, with the King itself still in dollars.
Low nodes	Off, Hide (no text and a faded colour), Dim (default), or Fade (every node faded by its size, the King in full).
Min % King	Which nodes count as low: under 25% of the King by default (5–100%).
Dim by	How strongly low nodes are dimmed: 80% by default.

Velocity has its own popover on the control bar: the timeframe, which nodes get badges, and the confluence bar. See Velocity and Movers.
