The Abstract Command Menu
When there are more abstract commands specified by an application than there are
buttons to which they can be mapped, the unmapped abstract commands are
placed in a command menu. The following operations are defined for the
command menu:
■
Display/hide menu
■
Select menu item
■
Scroll/Traverse up menu
■
Scroll/Traverse down menu
These menu operations are assigned to buttons as described below.
One button is used to alternately display and hide the menu. It is defined by the
property
command.menu.activate
using the format:
command.menu.activate = <
button_name
>
The buttons used to navigate the menu are defined using the following properties:
command.menu.select = <
menu_select_key
>
command.menu.up = <
menu_up_key
>
command.menu.down = <
menu_down_key
>
The default values for these properties are:
command.menu.select = SELECT
command.menu.up = UP
command.menu.down = DOWN
Example
This example sets the menu to be activated by the SOFT2 key and to be navigated
with the standard keys.
command.menu.activate = SOFT2
