Label Minus Sign:Will label a minus sign on negative slopes.
Label Format:Specify how to label the profile slopes. The automatic settings means to use a percent label for any slope less than 10%. and a ratio for any slope greater that 10%.
Label Method:Choose to label the entire profile at once or to pick individual segments.
