14 <p>Certain UI components are displayed within pop-up windows. A common characteristic |
|
15 for all these components is that they are temporary states This means that |
|
16 typically back stepping from one state to the previous state does not lead |
|
17 into pop-up windows; they are skipped.</p> |

|
35 <entry><p>A query is a component where the software requests user input. All |
|
36 query components are displayed in pop-up windows. They consist of a prompt |
|
37 (possibly containing a graphical element) and some kind of an input component. |
|
38 Various types of queries exist: </p><ul> |
|
39 <li><p>A Confirmation query has either one or two possible input values, given |
|
40 by using the softkeys. </p></li> |
|
41 <li><p>A List query has a limited number of possible input values, and the |
|
42 user selects one from a list. </p></li> |
|
43 <li><p>A multi-selection List query has a limited number of possible input |
|
44 values, and the user can select zero, one or more of them in one pass. </p></li> |
|
45 <li><p>A Data query contains an input field for a numeric or alphanumeric |
|
46 value that the user can edit.</p></li> |

|
51 <entry><p>A note is a feedback component that informs the user about the current |
|
52 situation. They contain a text and possibly a graphical element, and their |
|
53 layout is similar to a Confirmation query. However, the softkey labels do |
|
54 typically not exist, as notes do not require user input and by default they |
|
55 disappear within a time-out.</p></entry> |

59 <entry><p>Soft notifications are reminders that inform the user of events |
|
60 that have typically occurred during the user's absence. Soft notifications |
|
61 can only be seen in the Idle state, and the user can acknowledge them. There |
|
62 are two types of soft notifications; the layouts resemble those of Confirmation |
|
63 queries and List queries: </p><ul> |
|
64 <li><p>A single soft notification contains one notification. </p></li> |
|
65 <li><p>A grouped soft notification contains a number of information items |
|
66 presented as a list, and a title text common to all of the items.</p></li> |

76 left corner for certain time-out. When discreet pop-up appears, it does not |
|
77 dim the background and it does not have the focus. User can navigate in the |
|
78 underlying application normally.</p><p>Pop-up can have simple touch functionality. |
|
79 It can be used, for example, for the information and confirmation note.</p></entry> |
