ModelSim Altera Starter Edition Limitations

Anybody know what the limitations are for the ModelSim Altera Starter Edition (free) vs the Altera Edition (paid)? Besides Design Size and Simulation Performance, which don't affect my small design.

Specifically, my Wave Edit, Wave Compare, and half of my Wave Expand Time toolbars are greyed out for my Wave window. Is this a limitation of the Starter Edition 6.6c, or am I missing something?

    i tested the Waveform Editor in Starter Edition. you need to right click a signal and push Create/Modify Waveform to draw something new, then go to the Wave menu then to Mouse Mode and Edit Mode to use the Wave Edit menu

    It worked! Well, at least the Wave Edit toolbar is accessible. Relearning ModelSim is another issue. Thanks.
