The help feature "show digits which can be legally entered in a field" is toggled on. E.g. field 1 contains the little green digits 1, 6 ,7 and 9, which means 1,6,7 or 9 is left allowed to enter into field 1.
The (independent) help feature "Mark fields with only 1 legal digit" is also turned on. The puzzle contains only 1 field (row 8, col. 2) of this kind and is framed green.
