To simulate the click of the right mouse button, hold down
the
Alt
key while you tap or drag the object with the stylus.

objects may scratch the surface of the touch screen.
Selecting Objects
You can select objects in Windows CE by tapping the
object(s) with the stylus. To select multiple contiguous items,
hold down the
Shift
key while tapping the first and last items.
To select multiple non-contiguous items, hold down the
Ctrl
key while tapping each item.
To move the blinking cursor while editing text in a program,
simply tap the screen at the desired (new) location.
Dragging and Dropping
Dragging and dropping works just like in Windows 95. To
drag an object, tap the object with the stylus and hold the
stylus against the screen. Continue to hold as you slide the
object across the screen. Lift the stylus from the screen when
the object is in the desired location.
To copy an object, simply hold down the
Ctrl
key as you drag
the object, as indicated in the previous section.
