Slide
Sliding on the touch screen also involves dragging with your finger, but you need to press and hold your
finger with some pressure before you start to drag. While dragging, do not release your finger until you have
reached the target position.
Advancing playback
In players that have a progress bar, such as Windows Media® Player Mobile, slide your finger horizontally on
the progress bar to advance forward or move backward in the music or video you are playing.
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.
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.
Navigation Control
On the Today screen and in many programs on your device, you can use the Navigation Control for directional
control. Press the directional arrows to navigate up, down, left, and right on the screen. When an item has
been selected on the screen, press the ENTER button (the center button) to confirm your selection.
The Navigation Control is also touch sensitive and can be used for zooming. Slide your finger clockwise
around the Navigation Control to zoom in, counterclockwise to zoom out.
