USING THE TOUCHPAD
A touchpad pointing device comes built into your computer. It is used to control the movement of the pointer to select items on your
display panel.
The touchpad consists of a cursor control, and a clicking area. The cursor
control works the same way a mouse does, and moves the cursor around
the display. It only requires light pressure from the tip of your finger.
The clicking area is on the lower half of the touchpad that functions as
mouse button. If tap-to-click is enabled, you can quickly tap the touchpad
to perform the click function. To right-click, click the touchpad with two
fingers. The actual functionality of the clicking area may vary depending
on the application that is being used.
Clicking
Clicking means pushing and releasing a button. To left-click, move the
cursor to the item you wish to select, press the clicking area once, and
then immediately release it. To right-click, move the mouse cursor to the
item you wish to select, tap on the touchpad with two fingers. You also
have the option to perform the clicking operation by tapping lightly on
the touchpad once.
Double-Clicking
Double-clicking means pushing and releasing the clicking area twice in rapid succession. To double-click, move the cursor to the item
you wish to select, press the clicking area twice, and then immediately release it. You also have the option to perform the double-click
operation by tapping lightly on the touchpad twice.
Dragging
Dragging means pressing and holding the clicking area, while moving the cursor. To drag, move the cursor to the item you wish to
move. Press and hold the clicking area while moving the item to its new location and then release it. Dragging can also be done using
only the touchpad. First, tap the touchpad once over the item you wish to move with one finger. Next, with a second finger move the
object to its new location by moving the second finger across the touchpad, and then release both fingers.
Scrolling
Scrolling means navigating through a document or web-pages quickly without having to use the on-screen cursor to manipulate the up
and down scroll bars. To scroll, simply place two fingers on the touchpad and move them up and down to scroll vertically, left and right
to scroll horizontally. This is particularly useful when you are navigating through on-line pages.
SNAP-ON MAGNIFICATION LENS (OPTIONAL)
Your RGS Education Chromebook comes with a snap-on magnification lens which adds a magnifying effect to the rotatable camera.
To attach the magnification lens to the camera follow these steps:
1. Open the display panel to a 90-degree angle.
2. Flip the camera around 180-degrees.
3. Place the magnification lens onto the camera lens and press down until it clicks
into place.
