Using Your Treo 700P Smartphone 26
Moving around the screen
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 the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to
another before opening or selecting it.
The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is
highlighted:
•
Border glow: When an onscreen button (such
as OK or Cancel) or pick list is highlighted,
the item displays a glow around its border. If
an entire list screen is highlighted, the glow
appears at the top and bottom of the screen
only.
•
Colored background: When a phone number,
text, 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.
Examples of lists include the Contacts list,
the Messaging Inbox, and the Tasks list.
After highlighting an item, you can select or
activate it by pressing Center , or by
tapping the item with the stylus.
Tip
When a border
appears at the top and
bottom of a list screen,
press Center on the 5-
way to highlight the
first item in the list.
