The Profile Entities vista is displayed in the Panorama window. This table
displays useful grade data for the entire profile. Again, values are shaded

Notice that editing grips appear along this profile. If you zoom out, you

you grip edit the profile in one profile view, the same changes apply to
the other copy of the profile.
