Custom One-line Text and Equipment Data
You now have much more control over the text that appears next to the equipment symbols on your one-lines. You can choose what equipment properties and text to use and the order in which it appears. Several options for text visibility are now controlled using the custom text feature. See Customizing the One-line Text for more information.
