Subject:What do I call this? From:Suzette Seveny <sseveny -at- petvalu -dot- com> To:"'TECHWR-L, a list for all technical communication issues'" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- raycomm -dot- com> Date:Fri, 17 Mar 2000 13:28:25 -0500
I am documenting a browser-based app that has two lists on the page, one lists
available stores and the other lists all selected stores. The user will select
a button from one list, and select a *direction* to move the store to the other
list. There are two *direction buttons* on the page, that are similar to:
[<<] and [>>] (hope this shows up right).
What do I call these? Can I just call them direction buttons?
Thanks for all help and/or suggestions.
