Touchpad basics
The following items show you how to use the touchpad:
•
Move your finger across the touchpad (2) to move the cursor.
•
Press the left (1) and right (4) buttons located beneath the touchpad to
perform selection and execution functions. These two buttons are similar
to the left and right buttons on a mouse. Tapping on the touchpad is the
same as clicking the left button.
•
Use the 4-way scroll (3) button (for selected models) or Acer Bio-Protection
fingerprint reader (3) supporting Acer FingerNav 4-way control function
(for selected models) to scroll up or down and move left or right a page.
This button or fingerprint reader mimics your cursor pressing on the right
scroll bar of Windows applications.
