How to navigate through the dialog

This appendix illustrates the flow from the options on the HCD Primary Task Selection panel and the various actions that can be taken from each option. The panels that appear for option 1 provide an action bar at the top and a context menu for each object. Figure 10 shows the general action bar valid for the action list panels. Some action lists offer special action bar choices that are not shown in the figure (for example the Show/Hide action bar choice on the Device List invoked from the Operating System List). Figure 4 to Figure 8 shows the options on the context menu and the navigation possibilities to other panels. Almost all of the options on the context menu can be directly selected by entering the action code next to the item in the list to be selected. Available action codes are shown in parentheses below the "Options Available" heading.
