<h4><a name="SetPickupValueZoom"></a><font size="+1">Set Pickup Value
Dialog
Zoom Configuration</font></h4>
The pickup value dialog is used to enter values for use in the assign
value
edit tool.&nbsp; This dialog was previously called "set value."&nbsp;
The
pickup value dialog has the ability of a one-level zoom factor.&nbsp;
Clicking
button 1 over the dialog will zoom in or zoom out only one level, i.e.,
either you see the entire parameter range, or you see the zoomed in
range.&nbsp;
The amount of zoom is defined by the zoom factors specified in this
section.&nbsp;
The software can be configured to provide an overall zoom for all
parameters
with individual overrides for certain weather elements.
<p>The SetValue_zoom defines the factor to use by all weather
elements,
if they aren't explicitly specified by weather element.&nbsp; The value
can be intrepreted as the visible range in the dialog.&nbsp; A value of
4 indicates that 1/4 of the weather element's maximum range will be
displayed
when the dialog is zoomed in. For example, if temperature bounds are
-30
to +130 degrees, which is a range of 160 degrees, and the zoom factor
is
4, then the dialog will only show 40 degree range when zoomed in. </p>
<p>Individual weather elements can specify different zoom
factors.&nbsp;
The format of this entry is weatherElementName_SetValue_zoom.&nbsp; For
those weather elements that are not surface-based, the format is
weatherElementName_level_SetValue_zoom.
An example for QPF is shown below: </p>
<p><b><tt>SetValue_zoom = 4</tt></b> <br>
<b><tt>QPF_SetValue_zoom = 10</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<h4><a name="delta"></a><font size="+1">Maximum Set Delta Dialog
Values</font></h4>
The default range of the Set Discrepancy Dialog is 20% of the weather
element's
range.&nbsp; This may be changed on a per weather element basis using
this
configuration item.&nbsp; The item specified is the maximum value that
appears in the dialog.&nbsp; The format of the entry is
weName_MaxDeltaDialogValue.&nbsp;
For those weather elements that are not surface-based, the format is
weatherElementName_level_MaxDeltaDialogValue.
<p><b><tt>Sky_MaxDeltaDialogValue = 40.0</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="interpolateMode"></a><font size="+1">Interpolate Dialog
Mode</font></h4>
The Interpolate Dialog Mode has two options, "Gaps" and "Edited".&nbsp;
These correspond to the entries on the <a
href="MainMenuDialogs.html#InterpolateDialog">InterpolateDialog</a>,
"By Gaps", and "Based on Edited Data".&nbsp; The default if not
specified
is to bring up the dialog with the "By Gaps" selected.&nbsp; This
behavior
can be changed using this configuration item.
<p><b><tt>InterpolateDialogMode = "Gaps"</tt></b> <br>
&nbsp; <br>
&nbsp; <br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="ListofPublishDialogTimePeriods"></a><font size="+1">List
of Publish
Dialog Time Periods</font></h4>
The list of entries that appear on the <a
href="MainMenuDialogs.html#PublishToOfficialDialog">Publish
Dialog</a> are listed in this field.&nbsp; The entries must be valid <a
href="GFEMainMenu.html#DefineSelectTimeRanges...">user-defined
Time Ranges</a> or they will be ignored.
<p><b><tt>PublishTimes = ['example1']</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<p><a name="ListofPublishDialogPreselectedWeatherElements"></a><b><font
size="+1">Preselected
Publish Dialog Weather Element Group</font></b> </p>
<p>The weather elements in the&nbsp; group named in this entry will
be
highlighted upon initial startup of the Publish Dialog.&nbsp; The
default
is that none is specified, so that the currently loaded weather
elements
are selected. <br>
&nbsp; </p>
<p><b><tt>PublishDialogInitialWEGroup = "Public"</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="InterpolationDialogDefaults"></a><font size="+1">Interpolation
Dialog
Defaults</font></h4>
The <a href="MainMenuDialogs.html#InterpolateDialog">Interpolation
Dialog</a>
provides the specification of the interval and duration.&nbsp; These
two
entries in the configuration file will change the defaults of the
interval
and duration.
<p>By default, the dialog is shown with a minimum interval and
duration.&nbsp;
This can be changed. If the duration is specified, then the interval
must
also be specified. The units are hours and must range between 1 and 24.
</p>
<p><b><tt>InterpolateDefaultInterval = 1</tt></b> <br>
<b><tt>InterpolateDefaultDuration = 1</tt></b> <br>
</p>
<p>&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp; </p>
<h4><a name="CreateScratchDialogDefaults"></a><font size="+1">Create
from Scratch
Dialog Defaults</font></h4>
The <a href="MainMenuDialogs.html#CreateFromScratchDialog">Create from
Scratch Dialog</a> provides the specification of the interval and
duration.&nbsp;
These two entries in the configuration file will change the defaults of
the interval and duration.
<p>By default, the dialog is shown with a minimum interval and
duration.&nbsp;
This can be changed. If the duration is specified, then the interval
must
also be specified. The units are hours and must range between 1 and 24.
</p>
<b><tt>CreateScratchDefaultInterval = 1</tt></b> <br>
<b><tt>CreateScratchDefaultDuration = 1</tt></b> <br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
<b><font size="+1"><a name="WxDiscreteShowDescription"></a>Wx/Discrete:

<p>Controls the default setting for the
"show description"&nbsp; option for the <a
href="ButtonBarDialogs.html#WeatherPickUpValueDialog">Weather Set
Value Dialog</a> and <a
href="ButtonBarDialogs.html#DiscretePickUpValueDialog">Discrete Set
Value Dialogs</a>.&nbsp;&nbsp; In addition to the two dialogs, the
Spatial Editor Color Bar and Temporal Editor Data Pane's MB3 Popup Menu
items <a href="Button3Popups.html#SpatialEditorColorBarPopupMenu">Set
Common Values To, Set Recent Values To..., and Set Session Values To...</a>
also will contain the descriptive information.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The option may be interactively set
through the <a href="GFEMainMenu.html#WxDiscreteDescription">GFE -&gt;
View Preferences -&gt; Wx/Discrete: Show Description</a> menu item.<br>
</p>

<h3><b><a name="WxSetValue"></a>Weather
Set Value
Dialog Default Values</b></h3>
This section of the configuration file controls the default intensity
and
coverage/probability values that will be displayed on the weather set
value
(pickup value) dialog when creating a new weather key.&nbsp; If not
specified
in the gfe configuration file, the intensity and coverage/probability
values
are defaulted to the first intensity and coverage/probability values
defined
in the <a href="serverConfig.html#WeatherConfigurationSection">serverConfig.py's
Weather Definition.</a>&nbsp;&nbsp; The format of these entries is
weatherTypeSymbol_defaultCoverage
and weatherTypeSymbol_defaultIntensity.
<p><b><tt>R_defaultCoverage = "Wide"</tt></b> <br>
<b><tt>RW_defaultCoverage = "Sct"</tt></b> <br>
