The Edit::Paste option. The Paste option lets you retrieve an<br />

object you've saved using the Cut or Copy option.<br />

If you paste a goal, LDW also pastes all of the goals and measures<br />

below it.<br />

The Edit::Delete option. You can use the Delete option to delete<br />

an object you have selected in a view window. LDW will not save<br />

the object you delete for later pasting, and will ask you to confirm<br />

before the deletion takes place.<br />

LDW does not delete the members of a goal you delete, but makes<br />

them members of the next higher goal in the hierarchy.<br />

If the active window is not a view window, the Delete option<br />

becomes the opposite of the Add option. Then you can delete any<br />

of the objects in your analysis. When you select the option, you<br />

will see a dialog box with a list of the different types of items you<br />

can delete. You can delete a measure, goal, alternative, preference<br />

set or measure category. Just click the radio button for the object<br />

you want and click OK. You will pick the object to delete from a<br />

list.<br />

The Edit::Modify option. The Modify option lets you view the<br />

dialog box for any existing object in your analysis no matter<br />

which window, if any, is active. When you select the option, you<br />

will see a dialog box with a list of the different types of items you<br />

can modify. You can modify a measure, goal, alternative,<br />

preference set or measure category. Just click on the radio button<br />

for the object you want and click OK. You will pick the object to<br />

modify from a list.<br />

The Edit::Undo option. The Undo option lets you undo many<br />

actions you have taken in LDW.<br />

Views for structuring your analysis<br />

You develop the structure for an LDW analysis in the windows<br />

you can create in the View menu. LDW automatically displays<br />

the two most important windows -- the Goals Hierarchy view and<br />

the Matrix view when you start it or when you load in a new<br />

LDW file. You can create as many copies of these windows as<br />

you want. This can be useful for viewing several different parts<br />

of a complicated analysis all at once. The following options are<br />

available in the View menu:<br />
