Configuring the Settings

With the Behavior Tree Visualizer, you can modify several properties to render your tree in a way that you like. These properties range from the icons that are shown, the color of the header, how the nodes and edges are highlighted and more.

Before configuring the settings, it is useful to understand the order of operations that the tool performs when deciding how a node should be styled:

1. First, each node is checked against the Override Styles section.
2. If no Override exists, the node is checked against the Main Node Styles section to see if it's derived type exists.
3. Finally, if the Main Node Styles check fails, it is stylized with the settings in Default Style.

General

The general settings are:

Name	Description
Inactive Node Dim Level	Specifies the amount to dim the header of nodes that are not being run.
Active Border Highlight	The color that the border of a node and edges connecting nodes will be.
Minimap	Whether to show the minimap on the graph view.
Running Icon	The icon to show when a node is currently running.
Success Icon	The icon to show when a node has completed successfully.
Failure Icon	The icon to show when a node has failed.

Default Style

This section specifies the default way to stylize a node if the node does not have a style that applies via the Overrides and Main Nodes checks.

Name	Description
Color	Color of the header before the Inactive Dim Level property is applied.
Icon	Icon to display on the header.

Main Node Styles

Main nodes are high level nodes that leaf's derive from. This could be a Decorator, Condition and/or Composite. If an override does not exist, then the properties will be taken from here.

Name	Description
Node	Node that the style should be applied to.
Color	Color of the header before the Inactive Dim Level property is applied.
Icon	Icon to display on the header.
Decorator	Decorator nodes will be drawn as an icon on the node that they impact. Leave this unchecked if you want to draw the decorator as its own node.
Invert Result	Inverts the result that is displayed on the UI. If checked, Success will be displayed as Failure and Failure will be displayed as Success. Does not impact any behavior tree logic.

Override Styles

Overrides should be set for any nodes you want to have specific look/feel for.

Name	Description
Node	Node that the style should be applied to.
Color	Color of the header before the Inactive Dim Level property is applied.
Icon	Icon to display on the header.
Decorator	Decorator nodes will be drawn as an icon on the node that they impact. Leave this unchecked if you want to draw the decorator as its own node.
Invert Result	Inverts the result that is displayed on the UI. If checked, Success will be displayed as Failure and Failure will be displayed as Success. Does not impact any behavior tree logic.
