    That outflow_type specification is not available in the GUI.  You would need to add that to the input file manually before solving.  Out of curiosity - what sorts of cases are you running where the default 

    auto_pressure  -  The user specified pressure is used in subsonic flow, while the user specified pressure is ignored if it is lower than the computed pressure on the outflow surface.
