Clicking means pushing and releasing a releas-
ing a button. To left-click (primary-click) move
the screen cursor to the item you wish to select,
press the left (primary) pointing device button
once,and then immediately release it. To right-
click, move the mouse cursor to the item you
wish to select, press the right pointing device
button once so that it makes a clicking sound,
and then immediately release it.(Figure 2-7.)
You can also left (primary) click by a light tap
ending with the finger o
ff
the pad,instead of
using the button.
Double-Clicking
Double-clicking means following the Clicking
procedure above, but pressing the pointing
device button twice in rapid succession. Double
click works with either the left or the right but-
ton. Double left (primary) clicking can be done
on the touch pad, instead of using the button. It
is similar to single left clicking using the touch
pad – two light taps ending with the finger
o
ff
the pad.
