This action will open the main page of the toolbox with no project selected and therefore no data visualized.
|
|

To visualize data of one of the projects previously analysed, you can use the project selection dropdown menu illustrated below.

After selecting the project, the data will be fetched from the server and visualized. The historical plot of the number of smells over time is the first piece of information that is visualized.
|
|
|
The plot contains the number of smells on the Y axis, and the time (in version/commit index) on the X axis.
|
|
|
Different types of smells are represented using different colors and lines. To hide a line, simply click on the legend entry of that specific smell to hide it.
