The Scoring Branch

If you are deploying a stream, one branch of the stream must be designated as the scoring branch (that is, the one containing the scoring node). When you designate a branch as the scoring branch, that branch is highlighted on the stream canvas, as is the model link to the nugget on the scoring branch. This visual representation is particularly useful in complex streams with multiple branches, where the scoring branch might not be immediately obvious.

Note: Only one stream branch can be designated as the scoring branch.

If the stream already had a scoring branch defined, the newly-designated branch replaces it as the scoring branch. You can set the color of the scoring branch indication by means of a Custom Color option. See the topic Setting Display Options for more information.

You can show or hide the scoring branch indication by means of the Show/hide stream markup toolbar button.
