Tapping and typing
Tap with the stylus to get things done
Like using a mouse to click elements on a computer screen, using the stylus to tap
elements on your handheld screen is the basic action that gets things done on your
handheld.
The first time you start your handheld, setup instructions appear on the screen.
These instructions include a calibration screen. Calibration aligns the internal
circuitry of your handheld with its touch-sensitive screen so that when you tap an
element on the screen, the handheld can detect exactly which task you want to
perform.
IMPORTANT
Always use the point of the stylus for tapping or making strokes on the
handheld screen. Never use an actual pen, pencil, or other sharp object to write on
the handheld screen.
With your handheld turned on, you can tap the handheld screen to do many
operations, such as the following:
■
Open applications
■
Choose menu commands
■
Initiate a Find operation to search through applications installed on your
handheld for specific text (Find operations do not search through applications
on expansion cards)
■
Select options in dialog boxes
■
Open the onscreen keyboards
Just as you can drag the mouse to select text or move objects on your computer, you
can also drag the stylus to select text. You can also use the stylus to drag the slider
of any scroll bar.
