Show Surface Plot

Shows or hides the surface plot for the distribution on and off in the individual distribution results section of the report. The surface plot is shown in the Distribution, Quantile, Hazard, and Density sections for the individual distributions, and it is on by default.

Show Points

Shows or hides the data points on and off in the Nonparametric Overlay plot and in the Multiple Probability Plots. The points are shown in the plots by default. If this option is unchecked, step functions are shown instead.
