•Advancing playback

In players that have a progress bar, such as the Home screen’s Music tab and Windows Media® Player Mobile, slide your finger horizontally on their progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the music or video you are playing.

For more information about the Home screen’s Music tab, see “Music” in Chapter 3.

For more information about Windows Media® Player Mobile, see “Using Windows Media® Player Mobile” in Chapter 11.

Flick

Flicking the screen is similar to swiping, except that you need to swipe your finger in light, quicker strokes. This finger gesture is always in a vertical direction, such as when flicking the contacts list. See “Finger scrolling” in Chapter 3 for details.

Finger zooming and panning

In programs such as Album and Opera Mobile, you can use finger gestures when zooming and panning. See Chapter 3, 8 and 11 for details.

Stylus

You can use the stylus to navigate and interact with the touch screen.

To use the stylus, pull it out from the stylus compartment at the bottom

of the right panel of your device. If the backlight is off, removing

the stylus automatically turns the backlight back on.

The stylus is magnetic and sticks to the side when held close to the device. This prevents you from accidentally losing or misplacing the stylus.

Basically, you tap with the stylus to open programs and select items on the screen, and you tap and hold on the screen to open a shortcut menu. You can also use the stylus the same way as what you do with finger gestures, such as swiping, sliding and flicking on the screen.
