Dragging
There are two ways to drag:
•
Move the pointer to the desired location then press down the left button. While still holding down the
left button, move the pointer to the desired location. Release the button.
•
Move the pointer to the desired location. Tap the touchpad twice quickly as if you were double-
clicking, however do not remove your finger after the second tap. Move the cursor to the desired
location. Lift your finger to finish dragging.
Adjust the touchpad settings by selecting Settings/Control Panel/Mouse/Buttons. These settings allow you to
change the orientation of the touchpad from right-handed to left-handed, and fine tune the pointer movement
and timing of clicks.
Touchpad Precautions
The Touchpad is a pressure-sensitive device. If not properly cared for, it can be easily damaged. Please take
note of the following precautions.
•
Make sure the touchpad does not come into contact with dirt, liquids or grease.
•
Do not touch the touchpad if your fingers are dirty.
•
Do not rest heavy objects on the touchpad or the touchpad buttons.
Scrolling Buttons
If you are scrolling through a document, you may find that using the scrolling button is more restful to your
hand than holding down a mouse button. The scrolling button is located between the touchpad buttons. Push
the top of the button to scroll up in a document or Web page; press the bottom of the button to scroll down in a
document or Web page.
