Just like the mouse, the TouchPad
lets you draw lines or point to items
on the Windows desktop. Try
dragging the pointer across the
screen by gently dragging your
finger across the TouchPad.
To left-click, press the Left TouchPad button. It is located
directly below the TouchPad. The left TouchPad button works as
the select or drag button. To double-click an item, move the
pointer over the item and press the left TouchPad button twice in
rapid succession.
The right TouchPad button works as the context menu or special
drag button. Press the Right TouchPad button to get
context-sensitive options.
The Scroll button is the equivalent of the right, left, up and down
buttons of the scroll bars on the side and bottom of your screen.
To view other areas of a document or browser window, press the
Scroll button in the desired direction.
