Touchpad basics

The touchpad controls the arrow (or 'cursor') on the screen. As you slide
your finger across the touchpad, the cursor will follow this movement.
Note: The touchpad is sensitive to finger movement; the lighter the
touch, the better the response.
Please keep the touchpad and your fingers dry and clean.
The cursor is controlled by some basic gestures:
• Single-finger slide: Slide a finger across the touchpad to
move the cursor.
• Single-finger press or tap: Press the touchpad down, or
lightly tap the touchpad with your finger, to perform a 'click',
which will select or start an item. Quickly repeat the tap to perform a
double tap or 'double click'.
• Single-finger press or tap in the bottom-
right corner: Press the bottom right corner
of the touchpad
In the Start screen, this will toggle the app
commands, in most apps this will open a
context menu related to the selected item.
• Drag: Press and hold the bottom left corner of the touchpad, or tap twice
anywhere on the touchtap, then slide a second finger across the
