Softkey Templates

Unselected Softkeys—Lists softkeys that are associated with a call state. This field lists the unselected, optional softkeys of the call state that displays in the Select a Call State to Configure drop-down list box. The softkeys that are listed in this field get added to the Selected Softkeys field by using the right arrows. You can add the Undefined softkey more than once to the Selected Softkey list. Choosing Undefined results in a blank softkey on the Cisco Unified IP Phone.

Selected Softkeys—Lists softkeys that are associated with the chosen call state. This field lists the chosen softkeys of the call state that displays in the Select a Call State to Configure drop-down list box. The maximum number of softkeys in this field cannot exceed 16. See Figure 43-1for a sample softkey layout.

Note Cisco recommends that a softkey remain in the same position for each call state. This provides the user with consistency and ease of use; for example, the More softkey always appears in the fourth softkey position from the left for each call state.
