If you check the Show Assessment Status box, LDW will color<br />

the goals hierarchy to indicate whether you have completed the<br />

preference assessment process for each goal and measure.<br />

Measures and goals with completed assessments are shown in<br />

blue. Those with uncompleted assessments are shown in red.<br />

Goals that don't have their own utility function are shown in gray.<br />

If you check the Show Drop Shadows box, LDW will draw the<br />

goals hierarchy with the black rectangles that highlight each goal<br />

and measure, otherwise LDW will not draw the rectangles.<br />

The Number of levels to show edit box lets you specify how deep<br />

to draw the hierarchy. The default is to show the whole<br />

hierarchy. The figures above were drawn showing three levels.<br />

The buttons in the lower right of the dialog box determine the<br />

description for each goal and measure.<br />

! The default Object Type button causes LDW to show<br />

the type of each object (goal, measure, measure<br />

category) below its name.<br />

! The Local Weight button causes LDW to display each<br />

member's weight in the utility function it belongs<br />

to.<br />

! The Global Weight button causes LDW to display each<br />

member's weight as a fraction of the total weight.<br />

The multiplier for each measure category is<br />

displayed instead of a weight<br />

! The Units button causes LDW to display the units for<br />

each member.<br />

! The No Description button causes LDW to display the<br />

member names with no further description.<br />

The Hierarchy Menu. The Hierarchy menu item appears when<br />

you select a goals hierarchy as the active window. The Hierarchy<br />

menu has the following options (many of which correspond to<br />

options in the Goals Hierarchy dialog box):<br />

! Horizontal Display -- redraw the hierarchy in horizontal<br />

orientation,<br />

! Vertical Display -- redraw the hierarchy in vertical<br />

orientation,<br />
