About the slider and keyboard
The slider enables you to use your BlackBerry® device when it is open or closed. For example, when the slider is closed, you can use the touch
screen keyboard to type short responses to messages. When the slider is open, the slide-out keyboard is available for you to type longer messages,
access keyboard shortcuts, and type while you view a full screen of content. You can also open the slider to answer a call and to turn on
backlighting.
You can use the touch screen keyboard in either portrait or landscape view. If you open the slider when the touch screen keyboard is displayed,
the touch screen keyboard disappears and the device displays screens in portrait view. Videos are displayed according to your device's
orientation.
Select commands using toolbars and pop-up menus
Several menu commands are also available on the screen to help you to perform common actions quickly.
Toolbars
Toolbars are available in most applications, and appear at the bottom of the screen. You can use the toolbar in the Messages application, for
example, to quickly search your messages, compose an email, or open or delete the highlighted message.
