Highlighting and selecting items
On most screens, one item—a button, a
list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by
default. The highlight identifies which item
is affected by your next action. Use
Left
,
Right
,
Up
, and
Down
on the
5-way to move the highlight from one item
to another.
Learn to recognize the highlight. It can take
two forms:
•
Border glow:
When an entire screen,
an onscreen button (such as Done,
New, or OK), or a pick list is highlighted,
a glow appears around its border. If an
entire list screen is highlighted, the
glow appears at the top and bottom of
the screen only; to highlight the first
item in the list, press
Center
.
•
Colored background:
When text, a
phone number, an email address, a web
link, or an item in a list is highlighted,
the item is displayed as white text
against a colored background.
After highlighting an item, you can select
(activate) it by pressing
Center
, or by
tapping the item with the stylus.
TIP
If the item you want doesn’t appear on the
screen, try tapping the onscreen scroll arrows
to view more info.
