 LAG currently supports UTM and latlong (or longlat: x = longitude, y = latitude) projections. By default files in both formats will be displayed using UTM coordinates. You can change it by going to //Tools >> Use latlong coordinates//.
 
-Latlong is generally a preferred projection because it doesn't require additional zone information. Latlong files can be saved as both latlong and UTM, while UTM files should not be converted, unless they contain projection information in the header's VLR geo keys. Alspp produced UTM files don't contain this information (they do but under wrong GeoKey) so this conversion should be avoided for the time being. Also latlong files seem to have higher precision than UTM files (up to about a 10th of a milimeter), which is probably much higher than the actual lidar precision. By default this values are rounded to precision of 1 centimeter when converting latlong to UTM. To prevent precision loss you can select // Use full precision // option on file saver dialog, however this will result in bigger files.

 * **Vertical slicing**
-    This allows to only display points within given Z values range. When //Slice// option is enabled all operations, like taking a profile and classifying, will only apply to the points with elevation within specified range.

 * **Super Zoom**
     This option is useful for close points inspection. It makes zooming in and out faster by the factor of 10 and also increases the point size.
+* **Heights**
+    Displays average Z values of points loaded into the profile and, in case of multiple flightlines, altitude differences between them in cm.
+* **Tools>Quadtree Information**
+    Shows information about the quadtree: number of points, number of buckets, cache size, boundaries and projection information if available.
