Options menu

 -

The commands and options that are available in the current context -can be accessed via the Options menu. It is displayed as a list in -a pop-up window.

    -

  • A Confirmation query has either one or two possible input values, given -by using the softkeys.

    • -

  • A List query has a limited number of possible input values, and the -user selects one from a list.

    • -

  • 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.

    • -

  • A Data query contains an input field for a numeric or alphanumeric -value that the user can edit.

Note

 -

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.
