Figure 4.6.: The F3 quick screen
Rockbox handles function buttons in a different way to the Archos software.
F1
is
always bound to the menu function, while
F2
and
F3
enable two quick screens.
F2
displays some browse and play settings which are likely to be changed frequently.
This settings are Shuffle mode, Repeat mode and the Show files options
Shuffle mode plays each track in the currently playing list in a random order rather
than in the order shown in the browser.
Repeat mode repeats either a single track (One) or the entire playlist (All).
Show files determines what type files can be seen in the browser. This can be just
MP3 files and directories (Music), Playlists, MP3 files and directories (Playlists), any
files that Rockbox supports (Supported) or all files on the disk (All).
See section

Scroll bar turns the display of the Scroll bar on the left of the screen on or off.
Status bar turns the status display at the top of the screen on or off. Upside down
inverts the screen so that the top of the display appears nearest to the buttons. This is
sometimes useful when storing the player in a pocket. Key assignments swap over with
the display orientation where it is logical for them to do so.
