Getting Started Guide

20 Basics
The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:
䢇 Border glow: When an onscreen button (OK, Cancel, etc.) or pick list
is highlighted, the button acquires a glow around its border.
䢇 Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email
address, or a Web link is highlighted, the item appears as white text
against a colored background.
After highlighting an item, you can select or activate it by pressing Center or by tapping
the item with the stylus.
Highlighting Text
You can use the stylus to highlight text on the screen.
䢇 Tap and drag the stylus across the text you want to highlight.
䢇 To highlight a word, double-tap it.
䢇 To highlight a paragraph, triple-tap it.
Accessing Command Buttons
In most applications, command buttons such as New, OK, and Details appear at the bottom
of the screen. In many cases, you can jump directly to these buttons instead of scrolling to
them. The 5-way controls vary according to the application, but here are some general
rules that apply to most applications:
䢇 From a list screen, such as the Contacts list or Memos list, press Right or Down to
jump to the first button.
䢇 From a screen where you create or edit entries, such as Edit Contacts, press Center
to jump to the first button.
䢇 From a dialog box, such as Edit Categories, press Up , Down , Right , or Left to
scroll to the buttons.
