2.8 The Command Icons, Control Panel, And Toolbar
The netpad screen has a column of permanent “command icons” on
the far right-hand side of the display. Some of these are user-config-
urable via the Soft Keypad Settings icon in the Control Panel
(for details see the netpad User Manual). From top to bottom, these
are the defaults for the soft keys:
Start Menu:
This icon is user-definable. Left-clicking displays the
Control Panel (for the Control Panel screen, see
Figure 2.21 on page 45). Right-clicking displays the
command shell.
Backlight Properties:
Left-clicking displays the menu for adjusting the Backlight
and Contrast settings. If you do not have a transflective
display, the Backlight On checkbox will be greyed out. To
automatically adjust the display, left-clicking toggles
between three default levels of contrast and backlight set-
tings: low, medium, and high. If the levels are adjusted, the
new settings will be saved so that next time the netpad is
turned on, or the user toggles the soft-key icon, the levels
will adjust to those settings. Right-clicking is inactive.
Important: Battery life is considerably reduced when the bright-
ness is increased.
Explorer:
This icon is user-definable. Left-clicking displays the Windows
Explorer. Right-clicking displays Internet Explorer.
Keyboard:
Left-clicking displays the Software Input Panel (SIP), the on-
screen keyboard. Right-clicking is inactive.
