Abstract

Portable electronic device (105) and method (400) of controlling a secondary feature. In one example, the portable electronic device (105) includes a transceiver (230), a touch-screen display (225) displaying a push-to-talk button (305), and an electronic processor (205). The electronic processor (205) is configured to start transmitting a push-to-talk communication when the push-to-talk button (305) is selected. The electronic processor (205) is also configured to display a secondary feature button (320) on the touch-screen display (225) while the push-to-talk button (305) remains selected. The electronic processor (205) is further configured to detect a swipe motion (325) on the touch-screen display (225) from the push-to-talk button 305 to the secondary feature button (320). The electronic processor (205) is also configured to initiate a secondary feature, in response to the swipe motion (325) being detected, while continuing to transmit the push-to-talk communication.
