H32:\S toggle the plotting of the data points on or off.|MThe lines cannot be turned OFF. Use the option "Plot points" from the edit \w menu.
H34:When this choice is selected, the program will choose the axis ranges for you. \S toggle the automatic axis range facility.|MWhen automatic is deselected, you may enter values in the writable icons below this icon.
H35:When automatic range selection is disabled, you may enter your choice of %0 value here.
H36:|MNote the program will still select a rounded value close to your choice when it plots the graph.
H40:You may choose to plot the axis labels to the side of the axis pips.|M\S toggle the x-axis offset.
H41:You may choose to plot the axis labels to the side of the axis pips.|M\S toggle the y-axis offset.

H56:If this is selected, then when you save a new set of default options, some of the current graph layout options will also be saved and will be remembered the next time GraphDraw is started.
H57:\S save a new set of default options which will be used the next time MultiPlot is started (\a will keep this \w open). These options will also be used in the current session if you also click on OK.
H58:Click \s or \a here to replot the graph using the new options you have selected. \a will keep this \w open. If you wish the changed parameters to become the new default parameters then you must also click on SAVE.
