Editing the altitude text in a profile view

The Altitude Editor tool allows you to edit the altitude text by adding heights above the airport (QFE) and horizontal lines that indicate mandatory, minimum, and maximum altitudes. If a horizontal line is drawn by default when the profile view is created, the Altitude Editor tool allows you to override the automated over/underlining.
