Pointing Mode Operation
To use the Touch Pad in Pointing Mode, simply touch it with a fingertip and
move the finger along the pad in the direction you want the on-screen
pointer to move.
The two buttons below the keyboard are used like the buttons on a mouse.
Press the left button to select a menu item or to manipulate text or graphics
with the pointer. Press the right button to display a context menu or operate
another function according to the software you are using.
The upper right tap zone will be designated as the Mode Button which
switches the Touch Pad from Pointing Mode to Dual Mode.
Dual Mode Operation
When the Touch Pad is in Dual Mode it is divided into eight areas. These
areas include the Mode Button, the volume control zone and six action
buttons. While in Dual Mode the Touch Pad will not function as a pointing
device.
Dual Mode Pad
There are two ways to exit Dual Mode, one is to tap the mode button and
the other is to tap one of the six action buttons.
You can also tap the Touch Pad to perform functions similar to those of the
left button.
Click: Tap once
Double-click: Tap twice
Drag and drop: Tap to select the object you want to move. Leave your
finger on the Touch Pad after the second tap and move your finger
along the pad to move the object.
