6-3. Windows Navigation. There are conventions for operator interaction with Windows programs. Often
there is more than one way to accomplish the same task. The following subparagraphs describe general
Windows operations used with IPADS Map Manager.
a.
Clicking. Clicking refers to placing the mouse cursor on the desired item and momentarily pressing the
left mouse button to perform an operation. Operations include activating a button, selecting an item from a
list, or selecting a field for data entry. Often, clicking with a mouse or trackball is the most convenient way
to select items and perform operations. However, on some portable computers it may be more convenient
to Tab to the desired item, paragraph 3.b.
b. Tabbing. Pressing the Tab key will make buttons, data entry fields, and list boxes active in sequence.
Pressing Tab while holding the shift key reverses the sequence. The active item in a Window is indicated
by a box drawn around the text or a cursor in a data entry field. An additional action may be needed to
actually make a selection or initiate an operation. These actions are described in following subparagraphs.
Tabbing, followed by the additional action, if any, is equivalent to clicking. The equivalent Tabbing
function may be used when the term "Click" is used in this document.
