PowerShot G7 X Display Turned Red

I have recently purchased a G7X .... somehow as I checked out its features, my display changed so that any letters turned red and were inside black boxes .... also red rectangles were common .... I have tried out changing settings to no avail .... Canon does not provide person to person approach as far as I can see .... I'm sure the answer is simple, since I clearly clicked on something without paying enough attention ...

Greetings,

Start by resetting the cameras main settings.  If that doesn't help, please post an image of what you are seeing.

Sounds like you are in the menus. click the menu button, though turning the camera off and on, or half-pressing the shutter should clear it.

talk about feeling stupid .... of course it works .... it's like telling your wife that she is always right ...... I should have thought of it right away ....
