Navigating Using Gestures
The touchpad allows you to use gestures to zoom in or out on a page or scroll quickly through large
documents.
Zooming In:
To zoom in on a page using the touchpad, simply place two fingers together on the touchpad and move
them away from each other. (See Figure 17)
Zooming Out:
To zoom out on a page using the touchpad, place two fingers on the touchpad and move towards each
other. (See Figure 18)
Continuous Scroll:
To scroll through a large document using gestures, hold your finger on the right side of the touchpad for
a couple of seconds until a circular icon appears, then move your finger in a clockwise circular motion to
scroll down, or counter-clockwise to scroll up. To scroll side to side, hold your finger on the bottom edge
of the touchpad for a couple of seconds until a circular icon appears, then move your finger clockwise to
scroll right, and counter-clockwise to scroll left. (See Figure 19)
Momentum:
To increase the cursor movement speed, slide your finger quickly across the touchpad. (See Figure 20)
