You can configure the content of the toolbar and hide the date/time display,
see

Chapter 6.7.2, "Configuring the Toolbar"

on page 87.

The following list describes at first the default toolbar functions and then the addi-
tional functions.

Undo

Undoes the last setting actions step by step. Some actions cannot be

revoked: locking the touchscreen with [T-SCREEN LOCK], and saving data. The
undo stack is deleted during the following actions: Reloading settings from file,
and reference waveform actions (save, load and preset with active reference
waveform).

Redo

Recovers the undo steps in reverse order.
