Manual selection of an entity from a list of entities displayable by scrolling is facilitated. A list (101) of selectable entities is established. A range (1002) is identified of selectable entities (E006 TO E050) within the list. A portion (1003) of the range is displayed and output signals are received in response to manually applied pressure. Scrolling is performed through the range, not directly through the list, at a rate related to the manually applied pressure. The range is reduced during the scrolling operation to remove entities that are clearly not to be selected.
