Touchpad
The touchpad is a pressure sensitive pointing device that provides all the
features of a two-button mouse. Its primary function is to move the cursor
around the screen.
The instructions listed below describe how to use the touchpad.
1. First, place your fingers on the keyboard in the normal typing
position. The touchpad is easily accessible by moving either your
left or right thumb off the space bar and on to the touchpad.
2. Gently move your thumb across the pressure-sensitive touchpad in
the direction you want the cursor to move. The pad detects the
change in pressure and moves the cursor in the corresponding
direction.
3. The touchpad offers another method of making selections in a
software program. It is called double-tapping. This function
corresponds to double-clicking with a mouse. Once the cursor
has been moved to the object you want to select, lightly double-
tap the pressure sensitive touchpad. This double-tapping on the
touchpad will select the desired item and prompt the software to
perform the related operation.
4. The buttons located directly below the touchpad are the same in
function as those on a two-buttoned mouse. Clicking these buttons
makes selections, drags objects, or performs a variety of other
functions depending on the software. To select an object, first move
the pointer over the object you want to select, and then press the
left button one time. The functions of these buttons are software
specific.
5. Double-clicking is a common technique for selecting objects or
launching programs from icons. Once you have moved the
pointer over the object you wish to select, rapidly press the left
button two times. This action is commonly referred to as “double-
clicking” an object.
