Gautoedit will always show the basic data plot, which contains absolute velocity, percent good, ship's speed and "jitter". ("Jitter" is a measure of the amount of smoothing applied to the data and is an indication of either rapidly changing currents or dubious navigational input.) The default is to apply the current editing parameters to the plot.


Some of these buttons control whether a given type of plot is shown. Those are:
(1) topography with a cruisetrack and vectors
(2) amplitude and velocity in the forward direction (when underway)
(3) bias parameter and error velocity

(4) You can also choose whether to use the same figures over again (figures 500-504, if you plot everything), or whether you want new figures ("plot in new figures")

You can override the default (of applying all flags to the figure) by:
(5) turning off the profile flags (i.e. use the data in the database without applying any of the flags in the database)
(6) turning off the autoedit editing parameters (i.e. do not show the effect of these editing parameters)
