Figure 9. Touchpad pointing device
The Touchpad pointing device is built into your notebook. It is used to control the movement of the pointer to select items on your display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor control, a left and right button, and an scroll sensor (which also acts as a fingerprint recognition sensor).
The cursor control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around the display. It only requires light pressure with your fingertip, and the more pressure you use, the faster the cursor will move.
The left and right buttons function the same as mouse buttons. The actual functionality of the buttons may vary depending on the application that is being used. The scroll sensor allows you to quickly navigate up and down a screen. For information on using the scroll button as a fingerprint recognition sensor, refer to “Introducing the Fingerprint Sensor Device” on page 159
