Touchpad Basics - Acer TravelMate 2400 Service Manual

Touchpad
The built-in touchpad is a pointing device that senses movement on its surface. This means the cursor
responds as you move your finger across the surface of the touchpad. The central location on the palmrest
provides optimum comfort and support.

Touchpad Basics

The following teaches you how to use the touchpad:
Move your finger across the touchpad (2) to move the cursor.
Press the left (1) and right (4) buttons located beneath the touchpad to perform selection and
execution functions. These two buttons are similar to the left and right buttons on a mouse.
Tapping on the touchpad is the same as clicking the left button.
Use the 4-way scroll (3) button to scroll up or down and move left or right a page. This button
mimics your cursor pressing on the right scroll bar of Windows applications.
