Getting Familiar With Your Computer
Touchpad
The integrated Touchpad is a pointing device that senses
movement on its surface so the cursor responds as you move
your finger over of the Touchpad. The buttons located directly
below the Touchpad have the same function as a two-button
mouse. Press these buttons to make selections, drag objects,
or perform a variety of other functions depending on the soft-
ware.
Selecting Objects
1.
Move the pointer over the object to be selected
2.
Double-tap the Touchpad or double-click the left Touchpad but-
ton. The Touchpad will respond like a mouse.
Dragging Objects
1.
Place the cursor over the desired object.
2.
Press and hold the left button or tap the Touchpad two times as
if you were double-clicking but do not remove your finger after
the second tap.
3.
Move the cursor to the desired location and release the button
or lift your finger to finish dragging.
Scrolling
Two-Finger Scrolling and Reverse Scrolling
The two-finger scrolling feature allows you to scroll vertically
or horizontally and initiate scrolling from anywhere on the
Touchpad surface.
4.
Place two fingers down on the Touchpad surface. The fingers
should be slightly separated.
5.
Using a straight continuous motion, slide both fingers in the
desired direction.
6.
Lift both fingers up off the Touchpad surface to stop scrolling.
The Reverse Scrolling Direction feature allows you to change
standard scrolling behavior. Standard scrolling moves the
scroll bar in the direction of finger motion. Reverse Direction
Scrolling moves the document or object in the direction of
finger motion.
To enable this feature, select the Enable reverse scrolling direc-
tion check box.
