4 Navigating using touch gestures

Your tablet allows navigation using touch gestures on the touch screen.

Review the Windows 8 Basics guide included with your tablet. The guide provides information on common tasks using the touch screen or an optional keyboard.

Using touch screen gestures

You can control items on the touch screen directly with your fingers.

One-finger slide

The one-finger slide is mostly used to pan or scroll through lists and pages, but you can use it for other interactions, too, such as moving an object.

●To scroll across the screen, lightly slide one finger across the screen in the direction you want to move.

NOTE: When many apps are displayed on the Start screen, you can slide your finger to move the screen left or right.

●To drag, press and hold an object, and then drag the object to move it.

Tapping

To make an on-screen selection, use the tap function.

●Use one finger to tap an object on the screen to make a selection. Double-tap an item to open it.

NOTE: Press and hold your finger on an object to open a help screen that provides information about the object.
