Clicking
You typically click to highlight or select something on the screen, and double-click to open it.
Clicking.
To click, tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to register
a click. (If C
LICK
S
OUND
is selected in the Pen Tablet control panel and your computer speakers are on, then you will
hear a “click” sound when the pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a mouse click. Adjust your speaker
volume as necessary.) Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen cursor over the icon and pressing down on
the pen tip. The icon should highlight when you press.
Double Clicking.
To double-click, quickly tap the tablet twice in the same place with the pen tip. This is like clicking
twice with a mouse button. Try double-clicking on a folder icon to open it.
Hints:
•
Press the upper side switch to double-click. This is
easier than tapping twice with the pen tip, and is the
preferred method of double-clicking with a pen.
•
You can make navigating with the pen easier by
configuring Windows to select when the pen is over an
icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on
this feature:
