4-3
4.1 Selection from a list
This data type is used where there are only specific options
available such as the smoothing may be ‘normal’, ‘slow’, or
‘none’, the graph drawing algorithm may use ‘dots’ or
‘lines’.
When the flashing cursor is highlighting the parameter, the
R key steps forward through the list, and the L key steps
backwards through the list. The number keys 0-9 step
directly to that point in the list, which provides a quick way
to jump through long lists. There is no need to press the
ENTER key with this data type
For example, if the smoothing selection list comprises the
options:
normal (item 0)
slow (item 1)
none (item 2)
and the presently selected option is normal, there are 3
ways to select none:
press R twice
press L once
press number 2
