windows</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>

<p>Certain UI components are displayed within pop-up windows. A common characteristic

for all these components is that they are temporary states  This means that

typically back stepping from one state to the previous state does not lead

into pop-up windows; they are skipped.</p>

<entry><p>The commands and options that are available in the current context

can be accessed via the <b>Options</b> menu. It is displayed as a list in

a pop-up window.</p></entry>

<entry><p>Query</p></entry>

<entry><p>A query is a component where the software requests user input. All

query components are displayed in pop-up windows. They consist of a prompt

(possibly containing a graphical element) and some kind of an input component.

Various types of queries exist: </p><ul>

<li><p>A Confirmation query has either one or two possible input values, given

by using the softkeys. </p></li>

<li><p>A List query has a limited number of possible input values, and the

user selects one from a list. </p></li>

<li><p>A multi-selection List query has a limited number of possible input

values, and the user can select zero, one or more of them in one pass. </p></li>

<li><p>A Data query contains an input field for a numeric or alphanumeric

value that the user can edit.</p></li>

</ul></entry>

</row>

<row>

<entry><p>Note</p></entry>

<entry><p>A note is a feedback component that informs the user about the current

situation. They contain a text and possibly a graphical element, and their

layout is similar to a Confirmation query. However, the softkey labels do

typically not exist, as notes do not require user input and by default they

disappear within a time-out.</p></entry>

</row>

<row>

<entry><p>Soft notification</p></entry>

<entry><p>Soft notifications are reminders that inform the user of events

that have typically occurred during the user's absence. Soft notifications

are two types of soft notifications; the layouts resemble those of Confirmation

queries and List queries: </p><ul>

<li><p>A single soft notification contains one notification. </p></li>

<li><p>A grouped soft notification contains a number of information items

presented as a list, and a title text common to all of the items.</p></li>

</ul></entry>

</row>
