This screen is used to correct and/or modify an airfoil using a mouse. This screen consists of a scrollable region (airfoil window) on which the airfoil is plotted, status bar and tool bar.

The status bar is used to inform the user of the functions of each button on the toolbar and to show the date and time.

The buttons on the toolbar are used to enter new coordinates, delete coordinates, increase and decrease the size of the airfoil plot and to toggle on and off the visibility of the data coordinates.

The position of the mouse pointer within the airfoil window is shown as a percentage of the chord length (X% & Y%). The x axis is the axis running along the chord of the airfoil. The y axis is the axis perpendicular to the x axis with its origin at the leading edge of the airfoil.

A template facility is provided to accurately set the position of the coordinates for the leading edge.
