the door.

Using the Touch Pointer

Because touch screens do not

afford the same pointing abili-

ties as a mouse or digitizer pen,

performing certain mouse related

functions are not always possible

(i.e. hovering over a link on a web

page). This feature in Windows® 7

essentially removes this limitation.

When enabled, by checking the

box “Show the touch pointer when

I’m interacting with item on the

screen”, a graphical representation

of a mouse will appear near the

on-screen pointer (now a standard

arrow icon) when you tap somewhere

on the screen.

While the mouse is visible, tapping

on the left or right mouse button will

perform the equivalent action the same

as if you clicked with a real mouse.

Tapping on the mouse and sliding your

finger around the screen will move the

pointer just the same as if you were

moving a real mouse.

TIP: When using the Touch Pointer to move the pointer arrow around

screen, remember to watch the arrow icon for positioning and not the

mouse image or your finger.

The “Advanced Options...” button opens a panel that allows

the positioning (relative to the pointer arrow), appearance and

velocity behavior of the Touch Pointer to be adjusted.
