Is there a trick to toggle off all indicators in the EVF?

[oxjox]

On the main LCD display of the X-T2, as you press Display you can toggle between the histogram view, indicator overlay, or unobstructed live view. Looking at the manual on pages 18 and 19, there doesn't seem to be a way to have the unobstructed live view through the EVF. I find this super annoying. If I'm not missing something, is there a way to submit this suggestion to Fuji?

 

For reference, my X-E2 does what I'm talking about.

You didn't say which camera (other than "not X-E2"), but as far as I know they all work the same. With the EVF active in shooting mode, press the Disp/Back button.

You can set on or off all info with the personalized LCD/EVF controls. But you probably know that.

 

 

I’ve never done this myself but I guess that you could save the LCD/EVF settings ( all info off in this case) in the personal setting menu and then assign a button the option to switch or or off the personal settings 

 

Fuji receives emails with suggestions on what to do, they must be several hundreds of thousands every day. 

 

Despite this being a gargantuan task, I suppose that there will be several people reading them you can add your to that plethora. If they would even remotely consider to insert all suggestions in the software or hardware we will end up with unworkable amount of menus and a camera even larger and heavier.

 

That’s why they have the customizable menu, which, at least for certain software aspects, provides you the choice to do something that may (or may not) be of interest to others.

Sorry - X-T2. It only has two display modes. One with the indicators inside the shot and one with them outside the shot.  Here's a screenshot from the manual.

You're talking about Screen Set-Up > Disp. Custom Settings? I jus tried what you suggested but this option is not available for My Menu. Am I understanding you correctly?  

 

Actually, I'd be asking them to add a function back to the system being that the X-E2 can still do this. The two options that exist right now are useless in my opinion. Opt1. full screen / Opt2. small screen. Here's a screenshot from the X-E2 manual

I was referring to Custom Setting of the LCD/EVF

In that menu you decide what the display shows (or not)

Gotcha. I've tried that. The changes apply to both he EVF and the LCD. So if you turn off histogram, its off for both the EVF and LCD :-(

yes, but now I am confused, I thought you wanted to toggle between screen with or without information.
