<h4><a name="DefaultWeatherElementLoadDefaultGroup"></a><font size="+1">Default
Weather Element Load (Default Group)</font></h4>
The DefaultGroup item names the weather element group that will be
attempted
to be loaded when starting the GFE.&nbsp; A weather element group
contains
a listing of weather elements and their databases.&nbsp; If you would
like
a different group to be initially loaded you have two options. You can
change the definition of the default group by loading a desired set of
weather elements in the GFE and then saving the group as that specified
in the configuration file.&nbsp; You can also create a new group
through
the weather element load dialog in the GFE and save it under a
different
name and then change the DefaultGroup item.
<p><b><tt>DefaultGroup = "Public"</tt></b></p>
<p><b><tt><br>
</tt></b> </p>
<p><a name="WeatherElementGroupOrdering"></a><b><font size="+1">Weather
Element
Group Ordering</font></b> </p>
<p>Provides an order for the weather elements for the group
menu.&nbsp;
The user may list an order preference in the list variable
'WEList'.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Any elements not listed in 'WEList', will be listed at the bottom of
the
weather element group menu in alphabetical order. </p>
<p><b><tt>WEList = ["FireWx", "Gweight", "Public", "Temps"]</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;
<br>
</p>
<h4><a name="DefaultSampleSets"></a><font size="+1">Default Sample
Sets</font></h4>
The DefaultSamples item defines the initial set of sample sets that are
displayed when starting the GFE.&nbsp; Create your sample sets through
the Maps-&gt;Samples menu and store them under a unique name.&nbsp;
Change
the entry in the gfe configuration file to identify that sample
set.&nbsp;
More than one sample set can be initially loaded if desired by listing
each entry separated by a comma.
<p><b><tt>DefaultSamples = ['DefaultSamples']</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="EditActionsOnPopUp"></a><font size="+1">Edit Actions on
PopUp</font></h4>
This item specifies whether all Smart Tools (screened by the active
weather
element) will appear on the Spatial Editor button-3 popup menu.&nbsp;
All
smart tools (screened by active element) will appear if
AllEditActionsOnPopUp
= yes.&nbsp; If set to 'no', a list of smart tools (screened by active
element) must be specified to appear on the Spatial Editor button-3
popup
menu.
<p><b><tt>AllEditActionsOnPopUp = yes</tt></b> </p>
<p><b><tt>AllEditActionsOnPopUP = no</tt></b> <br>
<b><tt>PopUpEditActions =
["Assign_Value","AdjustValue_Down","AdjustValue_Up","Smooth"]</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="KeyboardShortcuts"></a><font size="+1">Keyboard Shortcuts</font></h4>
This item keyboard shortcuts. You are allowed up to 200
shortcuts.&nbsp;
IMPORTANT:&nbsp; You should test your shortcuts on your system as many
keys are already bound by the system.&nbsp; For example, F10 is bound
by some Tk widgets to bring up menus. Please note that AWIPS2 replaces
the KP_ syntax with the NUMPAD_ syntax, i.e. KP_Add in AWIPS1 becomes
NUMPAD_ADD in AWIPS2.
<p>Each shortcut is defined by a list with entries: </p>
<blockquote><li>Shortcut key</li>
<li>State of ShortCut key</li>
<blockquote> <li>None</li>
<li>Ctl&nbsp; (control key)</li>
<li>Alt&nbsp; (alt key)</li>
<li>Shift (shift key)</li>
</blockquote>
<li>Action type:</li>
<blockquote> <li>EditTool</li>
<blockquote> <li>Sample</li>
<li>Pencil</li>
<li>Contour</li>
<li>MoveCopy</li>
<li>DrawEditArea</li>
</blockquote>
<li>SmartTool - to execute a smart tool<br>
</li>
<li>Procedure - to run a procedure<br>
</li>
<li>Toggle</li>
<li style="margin-left: 40px;">ISC&nbsp;&nbsp; - to toggle ISC
mode<br>
</li>
<li style="margin-left: 40px;">TEGM - to toggle temporal editor/
grid manager<br>
</li>
<li style="margin-left: 40px;">HorizVert - toggle horiz/vertical
layout of GFE<br>
</li>
</blockquote>
<li>Name of the action</li>
</blockquote>

<h4><a name="GridManagerEditActions"></a><font size="+1">Grid Manager
Edit Actions</font></h4>
This item specifies what Smart Tools (not screened by the active
weather
element) will appear on the Grid Manager button-3 popup menu.

</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="EditAreaGroups"></a><font size="+1">Edit Area Groups</font></h4>
The Edit Area Groups entry is a list of edit area groups that will
initially
appear in the edit area and query dialog.&nbsp; By default, only the
Misc
group will appear.&nbsp; The user may set this to Zones to bring up the
set of zone edit areas, or any other edit area group name.
