2 MOVING AROUND ON YOUR PALM® TREO™ 680 SMART DEVICE CHAPTER Highlighting and selecting items On most screens, one item-a button, a list entry, or a check box-is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action. Use Left , Right , Up , and Down on the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another. TIP If the item you want doesn't appear on the screen, try tapping the onscreen scroll arrows to view more info. Learn to recognize the highlight. It can take two forms: Border glow: When an entire screen, an onscreen button (such as Done, New, or OK), or a pick list is highlighted, a glow appears around its border. If an entire screen is highlighted, the glow appears at the top and bottom of the screen only. TIP When a border appears at the top and bottom of a list screen, press Center on the 5-way to highlight the first item in the list. Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email address, a web link, or an item in a list is highlighted, the item is displayed as white text against a colored background. Examples of lists include the Contacts list, the Messaging Inbox, and the Tasks list. After highlighting an item, you can select or activate it by pressing Center , or by tapping the item with the stylus. TIP After you open an application (see Opening applications), experiment with using the 5-way to highlight various screen elements. 28
