ABSTRACT:
A device for controlling a display screen has an actuating element which can be rotated about a longitudinal axis and moved in the direction of the longitudinal axis, enabling a point of a menu structure consisting of menu, partial menus, functions and/or function values to be selected, and which can be represented as an optically highlighted field in the display screen. The actuating element has an initial position and can describe with relation thereto an additional movement with two additional degrees of freedom. The additional movement of the actuating element enables a field arranged in a marginal region (2) of the display screen and Audio associated with a point of the menu structure to be selected. The rotary/longitudinal movement of the actuating element enables a subordinate field of the menu structure associated with the field arranged in the marginal region of the display screen to be selected in the central region (3) of the display screen enclosed by the marginal region.
