the screen for about a second or so will perform a right mouse
button click. An animated circle will draw around the tip of your
finger. Lift your finger from the screen to complete the click.
TIP: When trying to select or activate something on the screen with
the stylus pen, pay attention to the position of the pointer icon instead
of the end of your finger.
Many newer Windows applications are touch aware. This allows
you to navigate documents using what are collectively known
as touch gestures and flicks. For example, swiping your finger
upward while reading a web page, or a Word document, will
cause the screen to scroll downward (actually the screen moves
up, you scroll “down” through your document).
Additionally, swiping your finger right on the screen will page
you forward through your web browser history or Word docu-
ment, while pinching two fingers together will zoom out of (or
magnify down) your page. You can learn more about touch
gestures and flicks in the chapter
Using Your Sahara NetSlate
with Windows 7
.
Active Digitizer (pen)
Using the Sahara NetSlate in Active Digitizer mode is similar to
navigating with a mouse. If your Sahara NetSlate a510 came with
a dual mode screen, it will also have come with a special stylus
pen that you will use to interact with the digitizer panel. Only
this stylus will activate the digitizer panel.
Hold the stylus pen as if you were writing with a standard pen.
Place the tip of the stylus just above the screen and move it
around without letting it actually touch the screen. The screen
should automatically switch to Active Digitizer mode when it
senses the stylus, and the pointer should follow the tip of the
pen around the screen.
Moving the stylus away from the screen will cause it to auto-
switch back to touch mode. When in Digitizer mode your hand
may rest on the screen, since this will not affect the behavior of
the pointer.
