■If the interval between clicks is too long, the double-click will not be executed.

■Parameters for the Touchpad can be adjusted from the Mouse Properties dialog box located in the Windows Control Panel.

DRAGGING

Dragging means pressing and holding the left button, while moving the cursor. To drag, move the cursor to the item you wish to move. Press and hold the left button while moving the item to its new location and then release it. Dragging can also be done using the Touchpad. First, tap the Touchpad twice over the item you wish to move making sure to leave your finger on the pad after the final tap. Next, move the object to its new location by moving your finger across the Touchpad, and then release your finger. (Figure 2-13)

TOUCHPAD CONTROL ADJUSTMENT

The Windows Control Panel allows you to customize your Touchpad with selections made from within the Mouse Properties dialog box.

OPTIONAL POINT AND WRITE PAD

Certain configurations of this LifeBook notebook have an optional Point and Write Pad in the location of the touchpad pointing device. The Point and Write Pad is compatible with the latest Microsoft Windows Vista operating system. For example, use MS Journal for notetaking with the pad, and use MS Paint for drawing pictures.

The Point and Write Pad enriches the user’s experience by enabling powerful note-taking, handwriting recogni- tion, and fast navigation options under the Vista envi- ronment that allow the user to quickly and intuitively get results faster and more efficiently. (Figure 2-15)

The Point and Write Pad stylus is used on the pad just as if it were a pen writing on paper.

SCROLLING

Using the scrolling sensor allows you to navigate through a document quickly without using the window’s scroll bars. This is particularly useful when you are navi- gating through online pages. To use the scrolling sensor, move your finger forward or backward across the button to scroll up or down a page. When you have reached the desired section of the page, raise your finger. (Figure )

Note that you can also scroll by sliding your finger up and down the right side of the touchpad. This feature is disabled by default, but you can enable it by going to Start -> Control Panel -> Mouse.

The scrolling sensor is also used as a fingerprint sensor. To use the fingerprint sensor device, refer to the appendix of this document. (See Fingerprint Sensor Device on page 99 for more information)
