Bug Description
Keith has added a keyboard toggle - pressing the letter 'd' on the keyboard toggles a piece of information about the feature up on the screen. The information is a short piece of text. Currently, active region labels have the NOAA active region number as their toggle text. CACTus CMEs have their feature ID number i.e., 2003-10-05/093. IN general, it is probably a good idea to have unique identifiers as the toggle text. However, this may not always be the case. For example, GOES flares are not numbered sequentially as far as I know, and so there is no unique identifier available. For NOAA flares, a much more useful piece of toggle text would be the Flare class, e.g., M3.5, X1.2. Hence, in general, the toggle text should not be the feature/ID number, but should be something that is useful to the physicist, this being decided by us beforehand, on a case by case basis.
