Index

How to use the Index

A scrollable list of all the dictionary headwords.

Tap on any letter to expand the view.

Tap on the up arrow in the tool bar to collapse the view.

Scroll up and down vertically or use the alphabet links on the right of the screen to quickly jump down to a particular letter.

Drill down into the Index while on the move, using the "Two Thumb" navigation method. Hold the iPad in both hands and use your thumbs alternately to select the letter of the alphabet, then the second letter of the word, and then use the small scroll wheel to quickly scroll through the list if it is long.

When you get the hang on this, it is the fastest method of getting to a word.

Tap on an entry in the list to view the definition.
