All user data in the CRXX system are described below.
To obtain a “cleaner” view of the chart details, you can turn some of
the settings OFF if they do not contribute to the clarity of the chart area
you wish to explore. All the listed objects that can be turned on and off
speaks for themselves – they are either “shown on the chart” or “not
shown on the chart”.
