Scrolling Through Screens
As on a computer, you scroll on the Centro device to move from field to field or page to
page, or in some cases to highlight an item or option in a list.
The behavior of the 5-way for list screens and entry screens varies by application. Here
are some general scrolling tips that apply to most applications:
Press Right , Left , Up , and Down on the 5-way to move to the next field,
button, or action in that direction.
In list screens, press and hold Up or Down to scroll one screen at a time.
Press Option and Up or Down to scroll to the
next page of information within the current record (see
“Using the Keyboard” on page 23).
When inside a text field, press Right or Left to scroll
to the next character or word, and press Up or
Down to scroll between lines.
You can also scroll using the stylus. Tap an onscreen scroll
arrow, or drag the slider of an onscreen scroll bar.
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.
