2.11.5 Using Menus
You can usually select a menu command to perform tasks.
• Click on the menu you want to access from the menu bar.
• Tap on the menu names and commands, or use the arrow keys
to move around the menus. Tap on commands marked with a
or press the right arrow key to see further commands.
A menu command with three dots at the end means that selecting the
command will display a “dialogue” where you enter more informa-
tion (see “Using Dialogues”, below).
If a menu command is grey, it means that it’s not currently available;
e.g. you cannot Copy unless you have first selected something to copy.
2.11.6 Using Dialogues
A “dialogue” appears when you need to make selections and enter
further information. You can move between dialogue items by tap-
ping on them, or using the up and down arrow keys. Dialogues con-
tain one or more of the following elements:
Textbox:
where you just type in your information. When you tap in the
textbox, you will need to open the on-screen keyboard to
enter text.
Dropdown:
where you select from a number of options. You will see left
and right arrows around the current selection; you can change
the selection by tapping on the arrows, by pressing the left
and right arrow keys, or by typing the first letter of the option
you want.
