Selecting the Display Modes
Once an application is open, you can switch between three
basic display modes: Index, View and Edit. Each display
mode has its own unique appearance and particular
purpose. Index mode is normally the default view when an
application is opened, and provides a summary of the
individual entries that have been created. Pressing
ENTER
after selecting a particular entry causes the entry to be
displayed in View mode, which shows the full details of the
entry. During View mode, the word VIEW appears at the
top of the screen, and no entry details may be altered.
Pressing EDIT , either when an entry is displayed in View
mode or is selected in Index mode, causes the entry to be
displayed in Edit mode. The entry’s details can then be
altered as desired. During Edit mode, the word EDIT
appears at the top of the screen. Edit mode is also used
when an entry is being created (by pressing NEW ).
☞
The Calc and Clock applications do not have Index,
View or Edit modes.
Index mode
Index mode shows you a one line view of each entry within
the application. This allows you to easily find a particular
entry, which you can then display in full (View mode) by
pressing
ENTER .
