Make it clearer when the result set gets filtered

Open simonswine opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

By clicking into the Flame graph we currently allow a user to focus on a particular subset of the flame graph.

After having filtered it quite hard to tell for a user that they are no longer seeing the full trace.

Full flamegraph:

scrn-2022-09-29-16-02-53

Subset of a flamegraph after clicking on runtime.gcBgMarkWorker:

scrn-2022-09-29-16-03-28

I think it would be good to make the existence of a filter clearer, by displaying e.g. the breadcrumb to the clicked node:

Without any filter present:

/

When a node has been clicked:

/runtime.gcBgMarkWorker
