3. Tabulator
In editors, the tabulator key moves the cursor to
the next tabulator stop. In settings etc., the tab-
ulator key can be used to move to the next field.
4. Shift
When you press the shift key and then a letter
key, an uppercase letter is inserted in front of the
cursor. The shift key does not need to be held
down when pressing a key – once you have
pressed the shift key, the next key press always
generates a shifted character. In most text edi-
tors, the shift and arrow keys (7.) can be used to
select text. See chapter 8 "Notes: Editing".
5. Control (Ctrl)
Pressed together with certain keyboard keys, the
control key generates shortcut commands which
can be used in most viewers and text editors.
6. Character (Chr)
The character key is used to generate characters
not on the communicator keyboard. A single
press of the character key opens the special char-
acter table. Some special characters are also
printed on the keyboard as the third (green)
character. These, and certain other, characters
can be generated by pressing and holding the
character key while pressing the corresponding
key, see chapter 8 "Notes: Editing".
7. Arrow keys
The arrow keys can be used to move the cursor or
the selection frame (in the same way as the scroll
keys). In some applications, the arrow keys have
special functions. See chapter 8 "Notes: Editing"
8. Enter
When the cursor is shown, pressing Enter moves
the cursor to the beginning of the next line or
adds a new line. The Enter key can also be used
to select contacts and contact information in the
Contacts directory and to open folders and doc-
uments. When information notes are shown, you
may press Enter instead of the OK command. In
options and settings, when a value can be tog-
gled, you may press Enter instead of Change.
9. Help
Pressing the Help button activates a context sen-
sitive help. See chapter 13 "Help".
