Options template

The order of items in an Options menu should follow the template presented below (in specific cases, when there are strong arguments against the order in the template, the order can be changed.)

The option names listed here are generic names, not the actual texts used in the products. The texts may even vary between applications even though the logical item is the same.

Items that should appear in every full Options menu opened from the left softkey are labeled mandatory. However, these items are not required in context sensitive Options menus.

For other than the mandatory items, only the items needed in each context shall appear in the Options menu.

Items specific to the context can be added among the common items, in the places where they best fit, considering the importance and probable usage frequency. The places where context-specific items may appear are represented as +++ in the list.

Submenu titles are indicated with ? and are followed by the submenu items.
