The default setting of the tool is to display all of the classes in drop down boxes like in Figure 2.7.3-4. This setting is changed in the Options menu, where the user selects how many classes must be in the same TimeChunk before the drop-down box method is used. Figure 2.7.3 - 5 shows how the previous operation would result if this threshold were set to '5' instead of '1'.
