Softkey

Exceptions to the above are mainly the result of input fields. Where these are present, the left/
right cursor keys move the input cursor rather than performing an OK/cancel function. The
Return key takes you to the next field (like the "down" key) rather than closing the entire dialog
with OK. There are also Backspace (deletes character to the left) and Delete (deletes character
to the right) keys for editing text and numbers. The F5, F6, Backspace, Delete, and Select
keys (between the cursor keys on the panel) can be used to switch between Yes/No fields.
Touch panels without any additional keys still have a special function which allows you to edit
letters and numbers with HSK5/HSK6 by moving characters forwards or backwards. With a
touch screen, you can activate all the softkeys and even select rows in a menu simply by
touching them.
