they are skipped.
More information on these components can be found in section UI components.
Options menu The commands and options that are available in the
current context can be accessed via the options
menu. It is displayed as a list in a pop-up window.
Query A query is a component where the software waits
for user input. All query components are displayed
in pop-up windows. They consist of a prompt
(possibly containing a graphical element) and some
kind of input component. Various types of queries
exist:
- confirmation query: has either one or two possible
input values, given using the softkeys.
- list query: has a limited number of possible input
values, the user selects one from a list.
- multiselection list query: has a limited number of
possible input values, the user can select zero, one
or more of them in one pass.
- data query: contains an input field for a numeric
or alphanumeric value that the user can edit.
Note A note is a feedback component that informs the
user about the current situation. Notes do not
require user input. They contain a text and possibly
a graphical element, the layout is similar to a
confirmation query, however the softkey labels are
typically non-existent.
Soft notification Soft notifications are reminders which inform the
user of events that have typically occurred during
the user's absence. Soft notifications can only be
seen in the idle state, and the user can acknowledge
them. There are two types of soft notifications; the
layouts resemble those of confirmation queries and
list queries:
- single soft notification: contains one notification.
- grouped soft notification: contains a number of
information items presented as a list, and a title
text common to all of the items.
Call window Incoming calls and outgoing calls are presented in
