Double-Clicking

To double-click, touch the item twice, and then immedi- ately remove the stylus tip. You also have the option to perform the double-click operation by tapping lightly with your finger on the touch screen twice. (Figure 2-20)

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

Dragging

Dragging means touching the screen with the stylus, moving and then lifting the stylus. To drag, tap the touch screen twice with your stylus over the item you wish to move, making sure to leave the stylus on the screen after the final tap. Next, move the item to its new location by moving the stylus across the screen, and then lifting the stylus to release it. Dragging can also be done using your fingertip. (Figure 2-21)

Calibrating the Touch Screen

In order to ensure accurate tracking between the stylus and cursor, you should run the Touch Screen Calibra- tion Utility before you use the touch screen for the first time, or after you change the display resolution.

To run the calibration utility:

1.Go to [Start] -> Control Panel, and double-click on the Touch Panel icon.

2.Select the Calibration tab and click the [Calibrate Now] button.

3.Adjust the display of your notebook to a comfortable angle and find the red (+) symbol in the upper-left corner of the display.

4.Using the stylus, touch the screen directly on the (+) symbol, then lift the stylus. When you lift the stylus tip, the (+) symbol will move to the next location.

4.Repeat step 4 until you have selected a total of nine symbols. This is the minimum number of points necessary to calibrate your touch screen.

5.Once you have selected the nine symbols, click the [Update] button to return to the Touch Panel Settings screen.
