Everything that defines an organ in the Custom Organ Design Module (CODM) is within its CODM organ definition (your XML file in the HauptwerkUserData/CustomOrganDefinitions folder, with file extension .CustomOrgan_Hauptwerk_xml). That's the only file you need to edit.
Then when you use 'Design tools | Load custom organ' Hauptwerk will pick up any changes that you've made to the file.

I have read the organ design manual. I have looked at the examples. I think it is in the display 2 section under alternate display 1 .
Whether, and where, general combination pistons are displayed are determined by the following groups of attributes of the _General table/entity:
_General.CustomDisplay1_Generals_...
_General.CustomDisplay1_GeneralCancel_...
_General.CustomDisplay2_Generals_...
_General.CustomDisplay2_GeneralCancel_...
The corresponding groups of attributes for divisional combinations are specified for the Division table/entity:
Division.CustomDisplay1_Divisionals_...
Division.CustomDisplay1_DivisionalCancel_...
Division.CustomDisplay2_Divisionals_...
Division.CustomDisplay2_DivisionalCancel_...
They're covered in the sections on those two tables in the CODM user's guide.
