navigation keys to select (highlight) text, which

 

then enables the copy and cut functions.

 

- In markable lists, using Edit key together with

 

navigation keys allows the user to mark several

 

items of the list, then a function can be executed on

 

all the marked items as one operation.

 

The Edit key is handled in a special way: the primary

 

action (editing options menu) is opened from the

 

key release event, not the key down event as it

 

would usually be. This is to enable the mark/select

 

function where the key is being held down as a

 

modifier key.

 

(See sections Editing and Lists and Grids for more

 

detailed descriptions on the select and mark

 

functions.)

Power

- Turns power on and off. This requires a long key

 

press.

 

- Opens the Profiles menu for switching active

 

profile.

Navigation

The model of navigation is based on states arranged as hierarchical trees, familiar from existing UI concepts. A few added features bring in new flexibility:

￿￿Tabs

￿￿Applications key and the Application shell

￿￿Direct navigation between sibling folders

￿￿Links to applications and documents; Pinboard These features are described in the following sections.

Navigating in applications

The traditional hierarchical tree structure forms the basis for navigation. The user can move forward from one node (state) by opening an available item or selecting an option from a menu. Back function (available in the right softkey Back) returns to the previous level in the hierarchy. In the initial state of an application (number 1 in the figure below) the Exit function replaces Back in the right softkey; it closes the application.
