Appendix A Basic GUI Operation
This appendix describes the basic operations of the graphical user interface (GUI). Rather than
typing in lines of commands or memorizing pages of keystroke combinations, operations are
driven through picture and menu selections on the screen.
Each GUI system can be slightly different but the basic concepts and modes of operation are the
same. A general overview of GUI operation is provided in this chapter, with notes on the
specifics of the MCC terminal GUI operations.
This Appendix discusses the following:
ƒ Using the mouse.
ƒ Cursor.
ƒ Resizing a window.
ƒ Maximizing, restoring, and minimizing a window.
ƒ Selecting menus.
ƒ List boxes.
ƒ Drop-down list boxes.
ƒ Command buttons.
ƒ Text boxes.
ƒ Check boxes.
ƒ Radio buttons.
ƒ Cutting, copying, and pasting.
