options, or to access a pop-up menu. For example: touch and hold from the

gesture is always used in a vertical motion, such as when flicking through
contacts or a message list.

screen. This allows you to move the area of focus or to scroll through a list.
For example: slide your finger left or right on the Home screen to scroll
among the five panels.
•
Drag
: Press and hold your finger with some pressure before you start to
move it. Do not release your finger until you have reached the target
position.
•
Rotate
: Automatically change the screen orientation from portrait to
landscape by turning the device sideways. For example: rotate to landscape
orientation when entering text, to provide a larger keyboard, or when
viewing web content to minimize scrolling.
