If you have tried to collect a performance trace , and have ended up in a file *.tpt which is not human readable, note that performance trace can be decoded by using a tool called HANAAdmin.

Hmm... this post seems written hastily and presents an unsupported tool with a link to a blog post that is already more than six years old.
Instead of screenshots where I don't see what it is you want to show I'd be much more interested in reading about how you used this tool to solve a performance issue.
What conclusions did you draw from the data you found with the tool?
How did you go about analysing a performance problem?
Simply getting the tool to display something isn't really all that much to write about.
