TOUCHPAD CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

If you need to change or adjust any of the touchpad control functions, you can customize them from the Mouse properties dialog box in the Control Panel. Click on Start, select Settings > Control Panel, then double- click Mouse.

TOUCH SCREEN

The integrated touch screen allows you to use either the included stylus, or your fingertip, as a pointing device. You can use the stylus to click, double-click, drag items and icons, or to draw like a pen or pencil in applications that support this behavior, such as drawing or painting programs. See the documentation that came with your application for details. (Figure 2-17)

Figure 2-17. Using the Stylus with the Touch Screen

To purchase additional or replacement styluses, visit Fujitsu’s accessories web site at: http://us.fujitsu.com/computers.

To avoid potential scratching and damage, never use anything but the included stylus or your finger with the touch screen.

Clicking

To left-click, touch the object you wish to select and then lift the stylus tip immediately. You also have the option to perform the left-click operation by tapping lightly with your finger on the touch screen once. (Figure 2-18)

To right-click, go to Start --> Programs --> Fujitsu Touch Panel. From that window, you can specify a right button tool by using the Touch Panel Configuration Control button prior to the desired right mouse click. It can be used two ways: by holding down the key or by pressing the key once.

If the interval between taps is too long, the double-click will not be executed.

Dragging

Dragging means touching the screen with the stylus, moving and then lifting the stylus. To drag, tap the touch screen twice with your stylus over the item you wish to move, making sure to leave the stylus on the screen after the final tap. Next, move the item to its new location by moving the stylus across the screen, and then lifting the stylus to release it. Dragging can also be done using your fingertip. (Figure 2-20)
