In the portrait mode, the Selection key takes a textual label to indicate -the current functionality. The Selection key always functions identically -in both portrait and landscape orientation. In most cases, the label on the -middle softkey is the first item in the Options menu (for example,Open, Select, Play, -and so on). The Selection key functions normally in all landscape modes, but -it cannot be labelled in the landscape orientation owing to space restrictions. -Since the middle softkey label is not visible in landscape (nor in Touch UI), -it is important that the function assigned to the Selection key is as instinctive -as possible. If there is no obvious, intuitive function available in a given -situation, the context sensitive Options menu can be used.

-

When the Selection key opens the context sensitive Options menu -or performs the same function as the left softkey, the corresponding icons -are used. When there is an item in focus that is in itself a function (for -example, Download images or a button in a player), the middle softkey -is labelled Select. Otherwise, the middle softkey is labelled with -an appropriate text. The purpose of using a special icon for the Selection -key when it repeats the left softkey is to avoid repeating the text label -and also to promote the use of the Selection key as a quick and convenient -way of performing some typical tasks.

-

In case the Selection key does not perform its primary function in the -situation (and the related first Options menu item is not available) -the middle softkey label is not displayed, for example, in case of a locked -setting item, the label Change is not shown.

- -Labeling the Selection key in the control pane: left and right softkeys -have textual labels, the Selection key has either a textual label or one of -two icons: the context sensitive Options menu icon (bottom left) or the Select -icon (bottom right). - - - -
