Tables Pane

The Tables Pane is used in the Edit Mode. It displays the table (if any) of the kind selected in the node table for each selected node.  For each discrete chance node and utility node an actual table is displayed (if it has one of the kind selected). For each decision node it shows the initial policy and for each continuous chance node the distribution function is specified through a mean and a variance for each configuration of the discrete parents.

Figure 1 shows the Tables Pane containing CPTs for two discrete chance nodes.

The Tables Pane appears when the Tables-Pane Button in the Network Window Tool Bar is activated (see Figure 2).  This button is a radio button, so to make the Tables Pane disappear, simply reactivate the button.
