11.5 Notification area

The notification area is where the icons for applications working in the
background are located. The first icon shows Contacts, the next icon shows
hidden icons of applications that are running less frequently in the background.
Next, there is the power icon (it shows the battery level and whether the
charging is running when the power supply is connected). The next icon allows
you to view and control Wi-Fi, followed by the next icon for media volume. The
touch keyboard icon allows you to activate it in both tablet and laptop mode.
Then the time and date are shown. At the end of the screen you can see the icon
of the Action Center.

11.6 Action Center

Action Center
The action center allows you to view the messages that the system sends out in
relation to the system's activities and presents descriptions of problems that
occur. Below you will find tiles that allow you to quickly run some of the functions
of your computer or to access useful menus. There is also a Tablet mode button
here, which toggles the system desktop to a touchscreen display that you can
control.

11.7 Tablet mode

When the tablet mode button is pressed, the desktop switches to the device
mode via the touch screen only. The responsiveness of the screen increases and
tiles appear on the screen instead of the start menu. Then you can rotate the
device screen to use the device like a tablet. In this position, the laptop keyboard
is locked, so there is no risk of causing any unwanted action. If you turn the
display to the normal laptop position, the system will request the tablet mode to
be disabled - this can also be set to automatic switching. When you turn off
Tablet mode, the desktop changes from Tiled to Icon mode, the keyboard is
activated and the display sensitivity decreases.
