60 Getting Started
Using the computer for the first time
Once you have positioned your cursor, you may either click it in
place by double-tapping the TouchPad or clicking the control
buttons. For more on the TouchPad and control buttons together,
see
“Lesson 2: Using the TouchPad pointing device” on
page 114 .
Control buttons
When a step instructs you to click or choose an item, move the
cursor to the item, then press and release the primary (left-hand)
button. To double-click, press the primary button twice in rapid
succession. The primary button usually corresponds to the left
mouse button.
The function of the secondary (right-hand) button depends on the
program you are using. It usually corresponds to the right mouse
button. Check your program’s documentation to find whether it
uses the right mouse button.
Scrolling with the TouchPad ®
There are two active regions on the TouchPad which allow you to
scroll as you would with any wheel device on a mouse or
trackball.
To scroll vertically, run your finger up or down along the right
edge of the TouchPad.
To scroll horizontally, run your finger along the bottom edge of the
TouchPad.
