+<p>The Symbian platform uses Control Button Area (CBA) resources to set
+the options in the control pane above the softkeys. CBA resources map the
+text that appears above the softkeys in the control pane with commands that
+are collected by the event loop of the application framework and delivered
+to your application for <xref href="GUID-4941C035-C359-4968-9BD5-31F44EE5F810.dita">command
+handling</xref>.</p>
+<p>When a mobile device user selects an <parmname>Options</parmname> softkey,
+the application framework displays the <parmname>Options</parmname> menu based
+upon the definitions in the <xref href="GUID-5918ED8A-B26B-41A0-94A6-AB6D51BF80A1.dita">menu
+bars</xref> resources.</p>
+<p>Depending upon the requirements of your application, you can either:</p>
+<ul>
+<li><p><xref href="GUID-A3AF142B-F9DF-43FD-9D3F-788A74D0C575.dita">use
+precompiled CBA button options contained in <parmname>avkon.hrh</parmname></xref></p>

+your own buttons</xref></p></li>
