Finger gestures

Tap
When you want to type using the keyboard, select items onscreen such
as application and settings icons, or press onscreen buttons, simply tap
them with your finger.
Press and
To open the available options for an item (for example, a contact or
hold
link in a webpage), simply press and hold the item.
Swipe or
To swipe or slide means to quickly drag your finger vertically or
slide
horizontally across the screen.
Drag
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.
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 or message list.
Rotate
For most screens, you can automatically change the screen orientation
from portrait to landscape by turning HTC Desire VC sideways. When
entering text, you can turn HTC Desire VC sideways to bring up a
bigger keyboard.
