Name - The Name field allows a longer and more descriptive name for the level. Generally,
this field is used to assign a name to the level that more accurately identifies its function.
For example, assume you are defining the level illustrated by the 2X2 RGB Video Level in
Figure 8-16. You might assign the level the NAME “RGB Video” and assign the NICKNAME
“RGB” or “RGB VID.” Generally, when assigning names and nicknames, the NAME field is a
longer more precise description of the defined level and the NICKNAME field is a shortened
acronym or mnemonic used to identify the level on display devices or screens.
