- Touchpad/Active Digitizer/Touchscreen
Using the Optional Capacitive Touchscreen
Certain configurations of this Tablet PC have an optional dual digitizer that allows you to use either the
stylus or your finger(s) as a pointing device. This type of display also allows you to use “gestures” to
perform such actions as scroll, zoom, and rotate.
Right-clicking the touchscreen
To perform a right-click action using two fingers, press the first finger at the location you want to perform
a right-click, then quickly tap and release the second finger on the screen.
Gesture Mode
To initiate gesture mode, two fingers must touch the screen within one 10th of a second of each other. If
the second finger touches the screen after one 10th of a second has elapsed, the second finger is ignored.
Gesture mode ends when both fingers are removed from the screen. Note that if a gesture can’t be
recognized, no action is taken. In that case, remove both fingers from the screen and try again.
Scrolling Gesture
To scroll through long documents or on a web page, place both fingers on the screen and move them in
parallel in the same direction; if only one finger moves, no scrolling will occur. You can scroll vertically
or horizontally, depending upon the direction of the gesture.
Zoom Gesture
The zoom gesture is especially helpful when viewing pictures. To zoom in, place two fingers on the item
you want to enlarge, then spread them away from each other. To zoom out, place two fingers on the item
you want to reduce, then move them towards each other.
Rotate Gesture
To change the orientation of an object on the screen, place two fingers on the image you want to rotate,
then move them in opposite directions (as if you were turning a knob). The direction the item turns is
dependant upon the direction you move your fingers.
•GESTURE SUPPORT IS DETERMINED BY THE APPLICATION IN USE.
•THE STYLUS TAKES PRECEDENCE OVER FINGER TOUCH. IF THE STYLUS IS WITHIN ACTIVE RANGE OF
THE SCREEN, FINGER TOUCH WILL BE DISABLED.
•WHEN ONE FINGER IS USED ON THE TOUCHSCREEN, IT BEHAVES IN THE SAME MANNER AS A STYLUS.
