Utility and the Print Format Utility keep the system assigned mark for this element even if you have assigned a name for it. The Overlay Utility and the Print Format Utility do not use that system assigned mark for elements which have a user assigned name. The element mark is changed to an asterisk followed by this element’s name on the image area. For example, if you define a text element as the first element of an overlay and assign a name ABCD$_{, the element mark}$ *T001 is changed to *ABCD$_{.}$ To define or change an element name, press F4=Detail from either the Define or Change panels. Type the name you wish to assign to the element next to the element prompt. If you erase the previously assigned name, the Overlay Utility and the Print Format Utility replace it by the system assigned mark such as *T001$_{. Any}$ characters up to four can be assigned as the element name. Even if the length of the element name is less than four characters, the element mark occupies six characters, since the mark on the image area consists of an asterisk, the name, and a blank character. The element marks on the image area can be suppressed or re-displayed by pressing F15 (Mark On/Off). When the F15 key is first pressed, all the element marks displayed on the image area disappear from the display except the last one. This is especially useful to verify the entire text element or line/box element without overriding other element marks. Element Mark On/Off When the F15 key is pressed the second time, all the element marks are displayed on the image area again. One element may be overlapped with other elements in the display. If element marks overlap each other on the image area, the one created last is displayed. The other overlapped marks are not displayed. By repeatedly creating elements, some elements can not be seen on the image area. To solve this problem, the hide function is provided. This function temporarily removes elements one by one at the position of the cursor, and an element that was overlapped by the hidden one appears. You can use this function by pressing F16 (Hide). Hide The hidden elements are removed from the image area, but not actually removed. You can see them by pressing the F5 (Refresh) key. The Overlay Utility and the Print Format Utility also provide the refresh function. You can use this function by pressing F5 (Refresh). It restores the elements that were temporarily hidden by the hide function. Refresh Both hide and refresh functions only affect the image shown on the display. They do not change the elements you entered nor do they change the printed output when an overlay or PFD data is printed. The Overlay Utility and the Print Format Utility provide two ways to scroll in the screen view and the list view: Scroll v Function keys 232 AFP Utilities for iSeries: User’s Guide
