Tips for working with Directories

Create labels in Directories before tagging

Setting up a well-organized Directory structure at the start of building your world will make the process of tagging your world’s objects quicker and easier. By creating your Directory structure and object labels before tagging, you later simply select labels from the Directory on your de- vice when tagging objects; otherwise you will need to type in the labels on your mobile device, and extra steps will be required to adjust or rename tags in the Manage Tags section when you return to the Management Portal.

Create world flow charts

For larger worlds, creating a visual flow chart of your Directory structure can be a helpful tool for organizing and building your world.

Organise Directories options

(See screen shot on opposite page.)

World selection

At the top of the page (below the navigation toolbar), is the world selection dropdown menu, which lets you quickly select to work with any of your worlds.

View Directory for Region

Below the world selection menu is the View Directory for Region dropdown menu. With a country-specific world, this function will allow for viewing a specific country’s Directory (this function is not enabled in early versions of Nokia Point & Find).

Search Filter

The Directory Search Filter is used to search your Directory folders and labels. Type in a search term and click the Search button, and you’ll only see folders and entries that include the search term. Click the Clear button, and you’ll see all of your folders and entries again.

More options...

We’ll cover the Create, Import, Export and Delete directory functions (the four gray buttons below the Search Filter) plus the Directory List in detail on the next few pages.

Nseries specifications

The Nokia Nseries, launched in the mid-2000s, represented a groundbreaking line of multimedia smartphones that combined innovative technology with sleek designs. This series reinvigorated Nokia’s reputation as a leader in mobile phone technology while catering to a new generation of tech-savvy users looking for powerful devices that could handle various multimedia tasks.

One of the standout features of the Nokia Nseries was its commitment to high-quality multimedia capabilities. Equipped with advanced cameras, many models boasted Carl Zeiss optics, allowing users to capture stunning photos and videos. The Nokia N95, for instance, featured a 5-megapixel camera that set a new standard for mobile photography. In addition, the Nseries often included dedicated multimedia buttons, making it easier for users to access their favorite media apps and functions.

Displaying vibrant colors and impressive clarity, the Nseries devices typically used high-resolution screens. These displays not only enhanced the multimedia experience but also made browsing the internet, reading e-books, and enjoying games visually engaging. The inclusion of features like a built-in music player supported a rich audio experience, with many models offering support for various audio formats.

Connectivity was another hallmark of the Nseries. Users could expect 3G capabilities, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth support, allowing seamless sharing and downloading of content. The devices also usually incorporated GPS functionality, a feature that became increasingly important for navigation and location-based services, marking the Nseries as a pioneer in integrating location technology into mobile phones.

Software-wise, Nokia Nseries phones ran on the Symbian operating system. While not as user-friendly as later platforms, Symbian provided users with a level of customization and extensive app availability through the Nokia Software Market. This allowed users to personalize their devices according to their preferences, maximizing their utility.

The Nokia Nseries encapsulated a perfect balance of form and function. The sleek designs and premium materials reflected Nokia’s commitment to quality, while the powerful features emphasized the trend towards multimedia smartphones. By combining photography, video, music, and internet capabilities, the Nseries paved the way for today's smartphones, influencing how devices are designed and utilized in modern life. Though the series has been discontinued, its legacy remains visible in the evolution of mobile technology.
