CHAPTER
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.
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.
Highlighting text
You can use the stylus to highlight text on
the screen.
• Tap and drag the stylus across the text
you want to highlight.
• To highlight a word, double-tap it.
• To highlight a paragraph, triple-tap it.
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.
TIP
After you open an application (see
Opening applications
), experiment with using
the 5-way to highlight various screen
elements.
