Figure 9. Touchpad pointing device
The Touchpad pointing device is built into your notebook. It is used to control the movement of the pointer
to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, a left and right
button, and an scroll button.
The cursor control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only
requires light pressure with your fingertip, and the more pressure you use, the faster the cursor will move.
Additionally, the touchpad allows you to zoom in or out and scroll through large documents using simple
gestures.
The left and right buttons function the same as mouse buttons. The actual functionality of the buttons may
vary depending on the application that is being used. The scroll sensor allows you to quickly navigate up
and down a screen.
