Selection is something done using the pointing device (D-pad, trackball, arrow keys, etc.) where available. For example, on a device with a D-pad, pressing the up/down/left/right portions of the D-pad on a GridView will change the selection. Clicking is something done by the touchscreen, or by the pointing device's "main" button. For example, on a device with a D-pad, pressing the center button will be a click of whatever item was selected using the up/down/left/right portions of the D-pad. -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://github.com/commonsguy http://commonsware.com/blog | http://twitter.com/commonsguy Android Training in Oslo: http://bit.ly/fjBo24 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
