The curve shows how the utility function converts any level in the
measure's nominal units to a utility.
For measures that use labels, LDW also lets you display the SUF
as a histogram similar to that used in the direct assessment
method. Just click “Yes” to the question LDW asks when you
select this option.
Computing Utilities From Measure Levels
The Review::Compute Utilities option lets you compute utilities
for a measure based on its SUF in the active preference set. You
can also use the option to compute the measure level on the
measure that would result in a particular utility.
When you select this option you will see the dialog box in Figure
8-2.

To select the active measure, just choose it from the combo box at
the top of the dialog box. To compute the utility for a level on the
active measure, just enter a level in the edit box labeled "Level:".
