GESTURES
Windows 8 and many applications support touchpad gestures that use
one or more fingers.
Note:
Support for touchpad gestures depends on the active
application.
These allow you to control applications with a few simple gestures, such
as:
•
Swipe in from edge:
Access Windows tools
by swiping into the center of the touchpad
from the right, top or left.
•
Swipe in from right edge:
Toggle the charms.
•
Swipe in from top edge:
Toggle the app commands.
•
Swipe in from left edge:
Switch to the previous app.
•
Two-finger slide:
Swiftly scroll through web pages,
documents and playlists by placing two fingers on the
touchpad and moving both in any direction.
•
Two-finger pinch:
Zoom in and out of photos, maps and
documents with a simple finger-and-thumb gesture.
