Chapter 4: Working With Windows CE 5.0

The Taskbar

4.3.2The Taskbar

NEO is equipped with a taskbar at the bottom of the screen. It displays icons through which you can view the battery capacity and radio signal quality of your unit. If the hand-held is at- tached to a docking station or adaptor, an associated icon is displayed. In addition, the taskbar displays the application(s) currently running on your unit and the security level as- signed to your NEO.

The taskbar also displays active modifier keys: [SHIFT], [ALT], [CTRL], [FN/BLUE] and [FN/ORANGE]. Keys that have been locked “on” are displayed in uppercase letters. For ex- ample, if you have set the [CTRL] key Lock to “on” in the Keyboard menu and you press the key, it is displayed as CTRL KEY in the taskbar. (For detailed information on modifier keys and keyboard options, see “The Keyboard” on page 31).

4.3.2.1 Using The Taskbar

A tooltip is displayed as each taskbar icon is highlighted. The tooltip provides the status of each icon.

If you’re using the touchscreen:

Tap and hold the stylus on an icon to display the icon's tooltip. Double-tap the icon to open the Control Panel dialog box associated with the icon. For example, double-tap the battery icon to display a dialog box listing the current battery capacity information.

On the keyboard:

Press [FN/BLUE] [.] (period) to display the Start Menu.

Press the [DOWN] arrow key to highlight Shortcuts in the Start Menu, and then press the [RIGHT] arrow key to display the sub-menu.
