The Default display type is an abbreviated version of the Extended display type. It contains only those fields from the Extended display type that you are most likely to change when selecting reports for viewing.

The advantage of the Default display type is that it is less cluttered and therefore easier to work with. In general, the Default display type is more widely used than the Extended display type, and Control-D users are encouraged to use this display type instead of the Extended display type. Display types more relevant to Control-V are listed later in this chapter, and are discussed in Viewing with Control-V.
