Pages can be customized by turning data boxes on or off.
These data boxes (sometimes referred to as text boxes, data windows or
information displays) are controlled with the Customize command. The
boxes usually appear at the edge of the display screen. Information type
is abbreviated on the Map and Navigation pages, but spelled out on the
Position page.
