objects mostly overwrite the whole screen, therefore a special button exists in the presentation
menu)

If in the Customized mode at least one visibility group is switched off, then the appropriate mode
and an additional '-' character will be displayed.
If in the Customized mode at least one visibility group is added, then the appropriate mode and
an additional '+' character will be displayed.
In the Cursor-Tool-Tip of this part of the screen the details of the actual selections are displayed.
