Using touch screen gestures (select models only)

A touch screen computer allows you to control items on the screen directly with your fingers.

TIP: On touch screen computers, you can perform the gestures on the screen or on the TouchPad. You can also perform on-screen actions with the keyboard and mouse.

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 revealed 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.
