18 General functions
Preliminary
General functions
This chapter describes a number of general functions that are the
same for many applications in your P800.
Icon views
The P800 can present the applications in two ways:
• List view (small icons appears in one column)
• Icon view (large icons in two columns)
Folders
On the right of the menu bar is the folders menu.Foldersare
used to organize user data, for example contacts, jotter entries,
or task lists, into user definable sets.
Each application has its own set of folders: a folder created in
one application is not visible in another.
In list view, the folder menu is used to organize your entries. In
detail view, the folder menu allows you to change the folder of
the current item.
Every item created in an application is always assigned to a
single folder, by default the same folder as displayed in list (or
detailed view). There are three recommended folders for most
applications:
Unfiled, Personal, and Business .
In list view, there is a super-folder called
All, which, when
selected, displays items from all folders.
All is the default value
in list views and when an application is first launched.
You can add folders or change the names of existing folders
through the
Edit Folders menu item. A folder can only be deleted
if it is empty. Not all folders can be deleted.
You use folders to move items to and from the Memory Stick.
When a Memory Stick is available in the P800, the folders on it
are shown in the folders menu.
Common functions
Zooming
You can change the size of the screen fonts between Small,
Medium or Large. From the menu bar, select
Edit > Zoom.
Find
The Find function searches through all the items stored in an
application. The standard
Find dialogue contains a single text
edit box with two buttons,
Find and Cancel . Selecting Find starts
the search,
Cancel closes the Find dialogue.
