1. Is a graph which shows the fitness of the genome population over time. Each vertical bar is a single generation. The yellow area shows the range of fitnesses in that generation, the orange area shows the standard deviation and the red line shows the average fitness. If a generation contains at least one genome which is fitter than the fittest genome in the previous generation, a little [plus] symbol is drawn as well. You can select specific generations from this graph.
2. This is a similarity graph of the X% fittest genomes in all selected generations. You can change X using one of the four buttons above the graph (the pie chart buttons). This graph has no axes, but the closer two points are, the more alike their genetic make-up. It's good for examining sub-species in the population at large. Black dots are genomes that have generated offspring for the next generation, red crosses did not produce offspring.
3. This is a multi-dimensional point graph of all genomes. Along the x-axis are all the genes/sliders that can vary, while along the y-axis is the normalised variation. Here too it is easy to spot sub-species, but the added benefit is you can also select specific genomes from this graph.
4. List of genomes sorted by fitness. The fittest genome is at the top. Genomes can be selected here as well.
5. This is almost useless, it just gives a general impression of the 'temperature' of the current crystal.
6. Same as with 4.

Thank you.
Let me in the reference.
