Using Gestures to Control Your NOOK
Your NOOK puts great reading material right at your fingertips. To read that material, to share it, to rate it and so on,
you’ll use your fingers in different ways.
Your NOOK recognises these different gestures:
• Tap
• Double tap
• Press and hold
• Swipe
• Scroll
Tap
A tap on the screen is a quick touch of your fingertip. It’s the same gesture you use when you tap a key on a com-
puter keyboard.
Double Tap
Tapping twice quickly on the screen is a useful short-cut for many features.
In the Library or the Shop, double-tapping on the cover of a book or periodical opens a window with details about
the item.
Press and Hold
Pressing and holding means touching your finger to the screen and holding it there for 2 seconds.
In many situations, pressing and holding causes your NOOK to open a menu at the bottom of the screen. The menu
offers you choices about the image your finger is resting on.
For example, if you press and hold on a word in a book, your NOOK opens a menu offering you choices of things
you can do with that book: highlight the word, write a note, look the word up in a dictionary and so on.
Swipe
To swipe is to slide your finger across the screen, usually to the left or right.
You can swipe to turn pages in a book you are reading.
If you swipe left on the Status Bar, your NOOK goes back to your previous activity. The Status Bar is a narrow black
bar that displays icons at the top of your NOOK screen in Home, Library, Shop, Search and Settings.
Scroll
Slide your finger up or down the screen to scroll through any list displaying up and down arrows at the bottom of the
screen. A scroll gesture is like a vertical swipe.
