CLICKING

Click to highlight or select an item on the screen. Double-click to open it.

Clicking. Tap the pen tip once on the tablet, or press the pen tip on the tablet with enough force to register a click. Try clicking on a folder icon by moving the screen cursor over the icon and pressing down on the pen tip. The folder should highlight when you press.

If CLICK SOUND is selected in the Bamboo control panel and your computer speakers are on, then you will hear a “click” sound when the pen tip is pressed hard enough to generate a button click. Adjust your speaker volume as necessary.

Tip: Configure Windows to select when hovering the pen over an icon and to launch the icon with a single click. To turn on this feature, first open a folder.

Windows 7 and Vista: From the ORGANIZE pull-down menu choose FOLDER AND SEARCH OPTIONS.... From the

GENERAL tab select SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

Windows XP: From the TOOLS pull-down menu choose FOLDER OPTIONS.... From the GENERAL tab select

SINGLE-CLICK TO OPEN AN ITEM (POINT TO SELECT).

Double-clicking. Quickly tap the tablet twice in the same place with the pen tip. This is like clicking twice with a mouse button. Try double-clicking on a folder icon to open it.

Tip: Set a pen button to DOUBLE CLICK. This is easier than tapping twice with the pen tip, and is the preferred method of double- clicking with a pen.

DRAGGING

Dragging is used to select and move objects on the monitor screen.

First point to an object. Then press the pen tip to the tablet and slide it across the tablet surface. The selected object will move across the display screen.

To select text within a document, move the screen cursor to the beginning of a text line. Then drag the pen across the tablet to highlight the text.
