Highlighting and selecting items

On most screens, one item—a button, a list entry, or a check box—is highlighted by default. The highlight identifies which item is affected by your next action. Use the 5-way to move the highlight from one item to another before opening or selecting it.

The highlight can take one of two forms, depending on what is highlighted:

•Border glow: When an onscreen button (such as OK or Cancel) or pick list is highlighted, the item displays a glow around its border. If an entire list screen is highlighted, the glow appears at the top and bottom of the screen only.

•Colored background: When a phone number, text, an email address, a web link, or an item in a list is highlighted, the item is displayed as white text against a colored background. Examples of lists include the Contacts list, the Messaging Inbox, and the Tasks list.

After highlighting an item, you can select or

activate it by pressing Center , or by tapping the item with the stylus.

Tip

When a border appears at the top and bottom of a list screen, press Center on the 5- way to highlight the first item in the list.
