The field types are described in the following paragraphs:
text field Text field contains some type of numeric or
alphanumeric data. It can be edited directly, using
the usual editing functions, when the form is in
editing state. The text field can expand to more
than one line if necessary.
In view state a text field looks identical to a
corresponding list item.
Figure 5-19. Text field.
pop-up field Pop–up field offers a possibility to choose one value
from a pre–defined list.
In view state a pop–up field looks identical to a list
item; the text is the current value of the field.
In edit state it has a distinct look that identifies the
field as a pop–up list.
To edit the item in edit state, the user can press the
Select key; it opens into a menu list that contains
the available values. The highlight is on the current
value. When the list is open, the softkeys are OK and
Cancel, as usual with a menu list. Both softkeys
return to the edit state in the form.
