Control panel
The Control Panel is the location for all the main settings on
your P910a that are system-wide and affect more than one
application. This is the main place to go to initially set up your
P910a, and to change settings at any point thereafter. To access
it, select
Applications > Control panel .
Tip You can find settings that apply to a single application in
the
Preferences menu of the application, for example: Phone > Edit
> Preferences, CommuniCorder > CommuniCorder > Preferences,
Internet > Edit > Preferences.
The sections below describe the settings available for each of
the default items in the
Control panel.
The Device tab
The device tab contains settings related to the behavior of your
P910a device itself.
Application shortcuts
Use this dialog to configure the application shortcuts shown in
the flip closed standby view, and the Application picker
shortcuts in the flip open mode. See ‘Standby view’ on page 15
and ‘Navigation’ on page 17. You can change the five shortcuts
shown. If you feel that the flip closed shortcuts obscure your
background, you can choose to have them hidden when you do
not need them.
To change an application shortcut
1. In the Application shortcuts dialog, select the Flip open or Flip
closed tab depending on the shortcuts you intend to change.
2. Select the icon you wish to change. The name of the
application is shown in the Set application pick list.
3. Choose the application you want to replace it with from the
list.
To hide the flip closed application shortcuts when your P910a
is inactive
Clear the Shortcuts always displayed check box.
Display
Use the Display settings to control the screen and power
functions of your P910a.
