What are the gridded numbers in the Portfolio X-Ray Bond Style Grid?

I've looked at the User Guide for Portfolio X-Ray, but they don't explain the numbers in the boxes of the Bond Style grid.  I would guess that they were percentages, but they add to 75.

    In theory all the boxes in the Bond Style table should add to either 100% or 0% (you own no bonds), but that is only true if it can properly classify them.  As in the missing 25% might be that it knows that you have that amount of bonds, but it doesn't know how to classify them, so they are left out of the table.

    Sounds plausible.   For anyone who is watching nost of the fall-out seems to be in two broad market ETF's.

    Also Morningstar does not attempt to classify Pimco Total Return

    The rows are Credit Quaity High/Med/Low and the columns are Interest rate sensitivity Ltd/Mod/Ext which correspond to the fund's average duration.

    Unlike stock funds, it appears that Morningstar assigns just one box to a bond fund, so that for example Vanguard Total Bond Market is 100% in the middle box of the top row despite its broad holdings.

    This is much less useful than the stock style boxes IMO.
