CHAPTER 3

Moving Around in Applications

The highlight can take one of three forms, depending on what is highlighted:

Individual applications may contain application-specific elements that can also be

highlighted by the 5-way, for example, the Quick Connect icon in a contact.

Border glow

This highlights elements of the

user interface like command buttons, pick lists,
and arrows.

Reverse type (white text on a dark
background)

This highlights an entry on a list

screen or a phone number, email address, or
web link on a web page or in a message.

Blinking cursor

The blinking cursor tells you

that you can enter text at that point.

Tip

When an entire screen is
highlighted, only the top
and bottom borders
acquire the glow; the
right and left borders do
not show the highlight.

Tip

A few onscreen elements
of your handheld can
only be activated by
tapping them with your
stylus, for example, icons
in the input area and the
view icons in the lower-
left corner of the Calendar
screen.
