Touchpad Pointing Device

The Touchpad pointing device built into your Fujitsu LifeBook is used to control the movement of the pointer to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, two left and right buttons, and a scrolling button. The cursor control works the same as a mouse, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure with the tip of your finger. The left and right buttons function the same as mouse buttons. The left and right buttons that are located at the top of the Touchpad are designed for use with the optional Quick Point Control, and they func- tion the same as the lower buttons. The actual function- ality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being used. The scrolling button allows you to navigate quickly through pages, without having to use the 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. (Figure 2-12)

■Certain E8310 LifeBooks are equipped with an optional “Quick Point” button for moving the cursor. For more about Quick Point, see “Optional Quick Point Feature” on page 17.

■The scrolling button may be replaced by an optional fingerprint sensor. To read about the fingerprint sensor, see “Fin- gerprint Sensor Device” on page 99.

■An external mouse can be connected to either USB or PS/2 ports on your Life- Book or the optional port replicator, and used simultaneously with the Touchpad. Note: If you boot the system with an external mouse connected the Touchpad will be disabled or enabled depending on your BIOS settings. (See Entering the BIOS Setup Utility on page 29 for more information)

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 immediately release it. You can also perform the double-click operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad twice. (Figure 2-13)
