Combinations of these views are organized in presentation modes.To open a presentation mode use the relevant tab on the bottom bar.Use the functionality offered by the Presentation Mode page to choose which presentation modes to choose from.

The views are organized in presentation modes. Which presentation mode to use is selected with the tabs at the bottom of the ST90 presentation.

The phrase presentation mode is used to describe the combination of views that are shown when the mode is selected at the bottom of the display presentation.

If you have many presentation modes on a small display, two small arrows appear on the left side of the bottom bar. You can use these arrows to scroll the bottom bar sideways. Use the functionality offered by the Presentation Mode page to choose which presentation modes to choose from. This can be useful for several reasons:

You don't need to scroll.
You can hide the presentation modes that you hardly or never use.
