Menu area

The menu area is reached by pressing the ↵ button which activates the menu sys-
tem. Moving the joystick left/right brings out the different pull-down menus. Select-
ing an item in a pull-down menu is made by moving the joystick up/down. The
selected item is highlighted. Some of the functions might be marked grey, indicat-
ing that they cannot be activated under the current conditions. For example, this is
the case for the Open or Save commands if there is no PC-card disk inserted.
Actions when ↵ is pressed:
• If the selected pull-down menu item has three dots at the end (e.g. Open...) a
menu dialog will show up on the screen.
• If not, the selected menu item (e.g. Save) will be executed and the menu area
will be removed.
Pressing the C button will remove the pull down menu area and restore the normal
function for the joystick, i.e. focus/zoom.

The control box is a horizontal table with different selection possibilities. The upper
line contains the selection headings and the lower line the value/alternative for

The selected item is marked white/dark grey. Pressing the ↵ button saves
changes and removes the control box. Pressing the C button will remove the con-
trol box, cancel the changes and put the camera in normal mode, i.e. focus/zoom
function for the joystick.
