Categorizing applications
The category feature enables you to manage the number of application icons that
appear onscreen in the Applications Launcher. You can assign an application to a
category and then display a single category or all your applications.
By default, your handheld includes system-defined categories, such as All and
Unfiled, and user-defined categories, such as Games, Main, and System.
You cannot modify the system-defined categories, but you can rename and delete
the user-defined categories. In addition, you can create your own user-defined
categories. You can have a maximum of 15 user-defined categories.
When you have an expansion card properly seated in the expansion card slot, the
last item in the category pick list becomes the name of the expansion card. You
cannot otherwise categorize applications that reside on an expansion card.
To categorize an application:
1. Tap the Home icon .
2. Tap the Menu icon .
3. Select Category on the App menu.
4. Tap the pick list next to each application to select a category.
TIP
To create a new category, tap Edit Categories from the pick list. Tap New,
enter the category name, and then tap OK to add the category. Tap OK again to
close the Edit Categories dialog box.
5. Tap Don e.
