It works the same as in icomplete-mode using "C-." (Next Choice) and "C-," (Previous Choice). One thing I have noticed is that the current chice is not put adjacent to = the M-x command. But in vertical mode, it feels more natural to use the up and down keys for "Next Choice" and Previous Choice". It is also more natural to press enter to "Select Choice" instead of "C-j". The way ivy does things is far more natural and easy. Am convinced that icomplete-vertical-mode suffers from serious problems and weirdness from the user point of view.
