A method includes storing an anatomical map of at least a portion of a surface of a heart. Respective electrogram (EGM) signal amplitudes measured at respective positions on the surface of the heart are stored. Based on the on the EGM signal amplitudes, defined are: one or more first regions of the surface in which the EGM signal amplitudes are fractionated, and one or more second regions of the surface in which the EGM signal amplitudes are non-fractionated. A first surface representation is generated for the fractionated EGM signal amplitudes in the first regions. Propagation times are extracted from the non-fractionated EGM signal amplitudes in the second regions, and a second surface representation of the propagation times is derived. The first and second surface representations of the respective first and second regions of the surface are simultaneously presented, overlaid on the anatomical map.
