Nokia Series 60 Keypad tone, Typical functions of the standard keys, Scroll up / Scroll down

Page 19

Edit key - the interaction is different, causing the action on the key release event.

￿￿Certain keys, possibly in certain contexts only, may perform key repeat. Key repeat starts after long key press timeout when the key is continuously being held down, and the associated function is performed according to the key repeat frequency, for example 3 times/second. (The repeat frequency may be user adjustable.) Moving the cursor in an editor is a typical case where key repeat can be used.

￿￿Long key press action and key repeat actions are not defined at the same time; only one of those can occur in the given context.

￿￿The primary key press action should not be conflicting with the long key press action or key repeat action.

With some input hardware, long key presses and key repeat may not be possible. The roller is an example of such an input device. The long key press actions and key repeat actions should be designed so that this does not cause harm: the long key press must never be the only way to do a function.

Keypad tone

A tone can be generated whenever a key event occurs. The tones for short key press (actually a key down event) and long key press are different; a key repeat event uses the long key press tone.

Keypad tone can be adjusted or turned off by the user.
