 The **newRPL** display interface is similar to that of the stock HP 50g ROM in that the top ~65% of the display is the stack area (levels 1 through 7), followed by a row of soft menus. A new feature of **newRPL** is two separate sets of soft menus. The top set of soft menus (**Menu 1**) spans the width of the display.  The second set of soft menus (**Menu 2**) occupies two lines on the lower left of the screen.  The **newRPL** display interface is similar to that of the stock HP 50g ROM in that the top ~65% of the display is the stack area (levels 1 through 7), followed by a row of soft menus.

 The angle indicator displays the current angle mode of the calculator.  In the figure, the calculator is in degree mode.  Other mods are radians, grads and degrees / minutes / seconds.  The angle mode can be changed using the commands ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_deg|DEG]]'' (to degrees), ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_grad|GRAD]]'' (to grads), ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_rad|RAD]]'' (to radians) and ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_dms|DMS]]'' (to degrees / minutes / seconds). The angle indicator displays the current angle mode of the calculator.  In the figure, the calculator is in degree mode.  Other mods are radians, grads and degrees / minutes / seconds.  The angle mode can be changed using the commands ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_deg|DEG]]'' (to degrees), ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_grad|GRAD]]'' (to grads), ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_rad|RAD]]'' (to radians) and ''[[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_dms|DMS]]'' (to degrees / minutes / seconds).

 The flag indicators show the first six user flags (out of 128 total possible).  They are arranged as flags 1 through 3 on the top row and 4 through 6 on the bottom row.  So, for example, setting flag 3 is accomplished by ''3 [[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_sf|SF]]'', and clearing the flag by ''3 [[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_cf|CF]]''.  The figure shows flag indicators 1 and 5 set, but 2, 3, 4, and 6 cleared. The flag indicators show the first six user flags (out of 128 total possible).  They are arranged as flags 1 through 3 on the top row and 4 through 6 on the bottom row.  So, for example, setting flag 3 is accomplished by ''3 [[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_sf|SF]]'', and clearing the flag by ''3 [[manual:chapter6:flags:cmd_cf|CF]]''.  The figure shows flag indicators 1 and 5 set, but 2, 3, 4, and 6 cleared.
