2.6 Using the Touchpad

English

A touchpad pointing device comes built into your computer. It is used to

 

 

control the movement of the pointer to select items on your desktop and use

 

applications on the notebook. The touchpad consists of a cursor control, a

14

left and right button, and a scroll bar. The cursor control works the same way

a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires

 

 

light pressure from the tip of your finger. 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 bar allows you to navigate quickly through pages, without having

 

to use the on-screen cursor to manipulate the up and down scroll bars.

Clicking

Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left button once, and then immediately release it. To right click, move the mouse cursor to the item you wish to select, press the right button once, and then immediately release it. You also have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on the touchpad once.

Double-Clicking

Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the left button twice in rapid succession. This procedure does not function with the right button. To double-click, move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press the left button twice, and then immediately release it.

You also have the option to perform the double-click operation by tapping lightly on the touchpad twice.

Dragging

Dragging means pressing and holding the left button while moving the cursor. To drag, move the cursor to the item you wish to move.

Press and hold the left button while moving the item to its new location and then release it. Dragging can also be done using the touchpad. First, tap the touchpad twice over the item you wish to move, making sure to leave your finger on the pad after the final tap. Next, move the object to its new location by moving your finger across the touchpad, and then release your finger. Using the Scroll bar allows you to navigate through a document quickly without using the window's scroll bars. This is particularly useful when you are navigat-ing through on-line pages.

CAUTION: The touchpad responds to movement not to force. There is no need to tap the surface too hard. Tapping too hard

does not increase the responsiveness of the touchpad. The touchpad responds best to light pressure.
