Numeric Keypad
The numeric keypad is embedded in the keyboard area. The embedded keypad emulates the numeric
keypad typically found on a full-size keyboard. It is arranged like a calculator for applications that
require you to key many numbers or for use. For example, with the Calculator in the standard
Windows Accessories.
Pointing Stick
The pointing stick is a pressure sensitive pointing device that provides all the features of a two-button
mouse. Its primary function is to move the cursor around the screen.
Using Your Pointing Stick
Clicking
1. First, place your fingers on the pointing stick.
2. Gently move your finger in the direction you want the cursor to move. The stick detects the
change in pressure and moves the cursor in the corresponding direction.
3. The left and right buttons located directly below the pointing stick are the same in function as
those on a two-buttoned mouse. Clicking these buttons makes selections, drags objects, or
performs a variety of other functions depending on the software. To select an object, first move
the pointer over the object you want to select, and then press the left button one time. The
functions of these buttons are software specific.
NOTE
The pointing stick also has the ability to do a left button click if it is tapped.
Double-clicking
l
Double-clicking
is a common technique for selecting objects or launching programs from icons.
Once you have moved the pointer over the object you wish to select, rapidly press the left button
two times. This action is commonly referred to as “double-clicking” an object.
NOTE
Double-clicking can also be accomplished by double-tapping with the pointing stick.
