<concept id="GUID-F66AC845-58B8-4029-AE04-C283226B7C12" xml:lang="en"><title>Single
tap</title><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
<p>In S60 5th Edition, double tap (focus and select) was supported for non-touch
devices. The Symbian platform supports single tap, which activates an item
on direct selection. That is, the UI is no longer focus driven. </p>
<p>The following are the highlighting features of single tap
in the Symbian platform:<ul>
<li><p>Single click performs the core action without requiring double tap.
If the core action cannot be defined, then the single tap provides the context-sensitive
menu as Selection key press in hybrid devices.</p></li>
<li><p>By default, no visible focus in touch UI. Focus can be evoked pressing
Selection key or navigation keys in hybrid devices</p></li>
<li><p>All item-specific options from the <b>Options</b> menu are hidden.
Item-specific options will be available via Stylus popup menu opened with
long tap, or in the next level in the UI hierarchy.</p></li>
<li><p>Item-specific options are removed from the touch toolbar. If there
are less than three actions left for the touch toolbar, the whole toolbar
is removed.</p></li>
<li><p>The landscape layout is optimized. Entire main pane area can be utilized
for the application content, when touch toolbar is not required. Toolbars
can still be utilized when the actions apply to the whole view, for example,
in Message viewer and editor.</p></li>
</ul></p>
