NOTE
The Customize command and the Overlay Data command both use the
same information categories. The difference between the two com-
mands is that Customize changes only the digital data boxes on a
screen, and Overlay Data changes only the information floating on the
screen without a box. See Customize Page Displays, on page 75 for in-
formation on customizing data boxes.

the Navigation category expanded.

any overlay data has been chosen for display. Select

symbols next to each category name. A category with a "+" next to it is
expandable, meaning its contents are hidden.

with a "–" next to its name) can be collapsed to hide its contents. Just

can show using the Overlay Data command.
