+<section id="GUID-D15030E7-08E0-4FBD-AA00-90C63DE0A09B"><title>Alignment</title><p>The
+default text alignment in left-to-right languages is on the left. There are
+only a few exceptions to this in specific cases, for example, soft indicators
+in the Idle state, which are right-aligned.</p><p>In right-to-left UI languages,
+the default text alignment is on the right.</p></section>
+<section id="GUID-A95C4D65-947E-4F69-B165-7CE080CF53CD"><title>Truncation</title><p>When
+a text does not fit into the view where it is displayed, it should be truncated.
+By default, texts are truncated from the end, and ellipsis (...) is displayed
+at the end of the truncated text as an indication. There are two exceptions
+to this main rule:</p><ul>
+<li><p>Phone numbers are truncated from the beginning, because the first digits
+of a phone number are usually considered less important than the numbers at
+the end.</p></li>
+<li><p>This general rule may be overridden in certain detailed components,
+where the latter part of the text is more differentiating than the beginning.
+Such might be, for example, queries to select an email address.</p></li>
+</ul></section>
+<section id="GUID-B2BC7CED-1704-4D90-A5A5-7FB434BE3704"><title>Marquee scrolling</title><p>When
+a text does not fit to a list view, the list text can be horizontally scrolling.
+Marquee scrolling should be used for texts that are not generated by the phone
+and for which truncation is not desired for some reason. For example, a Web
+address may not fit to one row of text in a list and it may be important to
+see the whole address.</p><p>Scrolling is done only when the item is highlighted.
+The text is scrolled in only one direction, and it does not loop.</p></section>
+<section id="GUID-6541BB9F-7232-47F3-ACFA-AEC260CA3EA3"><title>Content zooming</title><p>Content
+zooming is supported in the various lists, forms and settings in the Symbian
+UI. In this way, users can either use smaller font sizes to fit more information
+on the screen, or they can increase the text size if necessary. The user can
+choose between three different zoom levels using General Settings.</p></section>
