5.Double-clickingis a common technique for selecting objects or launching programs from icons. Once you have moved the pointer over the object you wish to select, rapidly press the left button two times. This action is commonly referred to as “double- clicking” an object.

Dragging

There are two ways to drag:

Move the pointer to the desired location then press down the left button. While still holding down the left button, move the pointer to the desired location. Release the button.

Move the pointer to the desired location. Tap the touchpad twice quickly as if you were double-clicking, however do not remove your finger after the second tap. Move the cursor to the desired location. Lift your finger to finish dragging.

Adjust the touchpad settings by selecting Settings/Control Panel/Mouse/Buttons. These settings allow you to change the orientation of the touchpad from right-handed to left-handed, and fine tune the pointer movement and timing of clicks.

Touchpad Precautions

The Touchpad is a pressure -sensitive device. If not properly cared for, it can be easily damaged. Please take note of the following precautions.

Make sure the touchpad does not come into contact with dirt, liquids or grease.

Do not touch the touchpad if your fingers are dirty.

Do not rest heavy objects on the touchpad or the touchpad buttons.

Scrolling lines

If you are scrolling through a document, you may find that using the scrolling line is more restful to your hand than holding down a mouse button. The scrolling line is located on the touchpad.
