Touchpad Pointing Device
The Touchpad pointing device may come built into your
Fujitsu LifeBook Series notebook. It is used to control
the movement of the pointer to select items on your
display panel. The Touchpad is composed of a cursor
control and a left and right button. The cursor control
works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor
around the display. It only requires light pressure with
the tip of your finger, and the more pressure you use, the
faster the cursor will move. The left and right buttons
function the same as mouse buttons. The actual func-
tionality of the buttons may vary depending on the
application that is being used. (Figure 2-15)
CLICKING
Clicking means pushing and releasing a button.
To left-click, move the cursor to the item you wish
to select, press the left button once, and then immedi-
ately release it. To right-click, move the mouse cursor to
the item you wish to select, press the right button once,
and then immediately release it. You also have the option
to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on
the Touchpad once. (Figure 2-16)

DOUBLE-CLICKING
Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the left
button twice in rapid succession. This procedure does
not function with the right button. To double-click,
move the cursor to the item you wish to select, press
the left button twice, and then immediately release it.
You also have the option to perform the double-click
operation by tapping lightly on the Touchpad twice.

P O I N T
An external mouse can be connected to either the
USB or PS/2 port on your notebook, and used simulta-
neously with the Touchpad. However, if you boot the
system with an external mouse connected the Touch-
pad will be disabled or enabled depending on the spec-
ifications in your BIOS settings. Also, if the Infrared
Mouse is enabled, your PS/2 external device will be
disabled.
