Selecting Multiple Items
Windows® 7 is well aware of how you manipulate items on your

computer with a mouse and how selecting multiple items, for

such actions as moving or copying, might be a bit more chal-

lenging when using a stylus pen or you fingers. That is why

Windows® 7 adds a selection check box in the upper left corner

of icons and in the far left column of list views.

In digitizer mode, hover over

an icon on your desktop or in

a Windows Explorer windows

and you will see this check

box appear. Tap on it to place

a check mark in the box.

Hover over another icon and,

when it appears, tap in its

check box.

In touch screen mode, tap

an icon to highlight it. The

selection check box should

appear. Tap in it to add it to

the selection.

Now, press and hold either

icon and start dragging and you should notice that both icons

move together.

This multiple selection feature works with other types of opera-

tions such as cutting, copying and pasting. It also works with

editing flicks (see the section Editing Flicks a little later in this

chapter).

Touch Screen Calibration
Often times, out of the box, you will find that the touch screen

on your eo a7400 work just fine. Over time you may find that

the accuracy of either the touch screen or digitizer may begin to

fade. When this happens, it is time to calibrate your screen.
