Palm G18 user manual Using the Attention Manager

Using the Attention Manager

Insistent alarms

Tapping on the text or icon will “Go To” that item and delete the event from the Reminders list screen.

Tapping in the check box will clear that item, similar to a To Do list item. The Attention Manager will draw a line through the text lines, pause for a moment, and then remove the item from the list, although the original data remains in the application.

The Reminders list screen displays three buttons that are used to respond to all of the items in the list:

Snooze: Puts the Reminders list screen to sleep for five minutes. After this interval, the Reminders list screen is displayed again. You can go directly to the Reminders list screen without waiting, by tapping on the blinking alarm indicator. For more detail, see “Understanding the blinking alarm indicator” below.

Done: If the Reminders list appeared because of more than one insistent alarm, tapping Done closes the Reminders list screen, although the events will remain in the application that created them. The Reminders list screen will not appear again, unless you tap the blinking alarm indicator in the menu bar.

If the Reminders list appeared after you tapped the Snooze button, then tapped the blinking alarm indicator, then tapped the Done button, the reminder will continue to snooze.

For more detail, see “Understanding the blinking alarm indicator” below.

Clear All: removes all of the items from the list, but does not close the Reminders screen. Tap this button to erase a list of events that have passed
