# Operating Picture Ring Controls

When you set a picture ring control to any mode other than indicator mode, you can use the keyboard or the mouse to select an item.

You can operate a picture ring control from the keyboard in the following ways:

- Press the up arrow key to select the previous picture ring control item.
- Press the down arrow key to select the next picture ring control item.

You can operate a picture ring with the mouse by clicking on the arrows to see each ring control item.

If the control mode of the picture ring control is hot or validate, a commit event is generated when you change its selected item.
